Introduction
A fresh, crunchy, and vibrant chopped salad that turns a humble can of Chilean Jack Mackerel into a highly nutritious and flavor-packed meal. It pairs the rich, meaty texture of sustainably sourced mackerel with a zingy yogurt-mustard dressing, crunchy vegetables, fresh herbs, and wholesome grains.
Step 1
In a bowl, combine the natural Greek yogurt and whole-grain mustard as the dressing base.
Step 2
Slowly pour in the sunflower oil drained from the canned jack mackerel into the yogurt mixture, whisking constantly to emulsify.
Step 3
Squeeze in the juice of one lemon, season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, and add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 4
Empty the pre-cooked mixed grains and lentils onto a large serving plate, spreading them out evenly to form the salad base.
Step 5
Using a box grater, coarsely grate the cucumber, red onion, red apple, and radishes directly over the grains on the serving plate.

Important Notes
Using the oil from the mackerel tin inside the dressing is a fantastic way to capture maximum flavor and minimize food waste.
Be brave with the fresh horseradish; its sharp heat is beautifully balanced by the sweetness of the apple and the cooling cucumber.
Ensure you look for sustainably sourced jack mackerel (such as MSC certified) to help protect marine life.
