Steps:
- Put the onion, tomatoes, cumin, coriander, one tablespoon of the oil and a large pinch of salt and pepper into a food processor and blitz until smooth. Transfer the tomato mixture to a saucepan, place over a medium heat and cook for 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce is slightly reduced. Set aside.
- Heat the remaining oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Season the mackerel fillets on both sides with salt and pepper and add the fish to the pan, skin-side down (you may need to do this in batches). Fry for 3 minutes, without moving the fillets, until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Flip over and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the fish is just cooked through. Add the lemon juice and allow it to sizzle for a few seconds.
- Transfer the fillets to warmed plates, spoon the spicy sauce over the fish and serve immediately.
PAN-SEARED MACKEREL WITH SWEET PEPPERS AND THYME
Mackerel escabèche is one of those dishes I have always preferred to admire from afar. It's traditionally prepared by pickling the fillets in vinegar, but I've never quite cottoned to its biting flavor. To me, it overwhelms the delicacy of a good fresh piece of fish. At home, I sprinkled the fish fillets with salt, pepper and some sweet paprika. Then I let them sit while I slowly stewed the leeks, carrots and peppers with some garlic and thyme. I seared the fish until lightly browned but still very moist inside. When people say they don't like mackerel because it's too strong and dry, it's usually because the fish has been overcooked. But when cooked right, until just flaky in the center, the flesh is mild and almost buttery.

Steps:
- Season mackerel with salt, black pepper and paprika. Let fillets rest at room temperature while preparing vegetables.
- Set a large skillet over medium heat and add 5 tablespoons oil. Then add leeks, carrots, bell peppers and thyme, cooking them until they soften, about 10 to 12 minutes. Add garlic, stirring gently, and cook for 2 minutes more. Add wine and cook until most of liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes. Season to taste with more salt, pepper and sherry vinegar, then transfer to one side of a serving platter.
- Wipe the skillet with a paper towel, add remaining oil, and set over high heat. When oil is hot, add mackerel in one layer, skin side down. Cook for 3 minutes, then flip and cook for 1 to 2 minutes longer, until fish is cooked through. Add fillets to platter and spoon vegetables on top of fish.
