Smoked Mackerel Bake

Slimming Eats Recipe

Serves 2

Extra Easy – 1 syn and 1 HEa per serving

Ingredients

2 smoked mackerel fillets (approx 3 syns*)

2 large white russet potatoes

half medium sized, butternut squash

approx 250g of cherry tomatoes

56g of cheddar cheese (2 HEas)

mixed herbs

Frylight or Pam spray

 

* the syn value for smoked mackerel will vary depending on the ones used, so be sure to check them in the syn calculator

 

Method

Preheat oven to 200c or 400f

Peel and roughly chop the potatoes and butternut squash, you want them into bite sized pieces.

Place the white potato in a saucepan of boiling water and parboil for 5 mins.

Add the potatoes and butternut squash to a roasting tin, spray over the top with some Frylight or Pam spray and place in the oven and bake until golden. You will need to turn them over a few times, to get them evenly browned.

Removed from oven, get the smoked mackerel fillets and flake on top of the potato and butternut squash. Evenly scatter the cherry tomatoes and top with the cheddar and a sprinkling of mixed herbs.

Put the dish back in the oven and bake until cheese is melted and tomatoes have softened.

Serve with you choice of vegetables. I served mine with carrots and green beans.
