Baked Spicy Mackerel With Potato Salad & Broccoli

"This is a gastronomic delight, it's brilliantly delicious & amazingly healthy dish. Mackerel is rich in omega 3 & potato, broccoli ticks your five-a-day goals. I found this as a surprisingly light weight dinner & it's well fit in the lunch block too. If you are not into baking you can also grill or pan fry Mackerel as well."
