Method

  1. Drain, rinse and drain well again the three bean salad, then put into a bowl with the red onion, mangetout and carrot ribbons.
  2. Drain, then flake in the mackerel fillets, removing the skin if you like. Season with black pepper, mix well, then add the dill or chives and drizzle over the French dressing. Stir well, then serve.
  • Tip: Swap the bean salad for cooked lentils, cannellini beans or butter beans, if you like. The mangetout can be replaced with cooked green beans, and the mackerel is easily swapped for tinned salmon or tuna.
