Warm Mackerel and Cannellini Bean Salad




I decided to make something using only the ingredients that I had in my pantry / fridge (Ready Steady Cook Style) and this recipe is the result.  I was really pleased with how it turned out as it was extremely tasty.  I really enjoy eating beans and pulses and, because this recipe turned out so well, have decided to eat them more often so watch this space! 

Ingredients:

2 x Tablespoons oil
½ Onion, diced
1 x Teaspoon Garlic, diced
1 x Teaspoon Herbs, dried
2 x Red Birds Eye Chilli, diced
1 x Can Cannellini Beans, rinsed and drained
1 x Can Mackerel, drained
8 x Cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
6 x Baby Potatoes, pre boiled
½ Ball Mozzarella, diced
Baby leaf salad vegetables
Salt and pepper to taste

Method:

Heat the oil in a pot.
Add the onion, garlic, chilli and herbs and cook for 2 – 3 minutes.
Add the Cannellini Beans and cook for a further 2 minutes.
Flake the Mackerel and add it to the pot.
Add the pre cooked potatoes, tomatoes and Mozzarella.
Cook until the Mozzarella starts to soften and melt.
Season to taste.
Serve with some baby leaf salad vegetables.
