Method
Sprinkle the oats onto a plate and season with a pinch of salt and plenty of pepper. Beat one of the eggs in a shallow bowl. Dip each kipper fillet into the egg and roll it in the seasoned oats.
Line a roasting tin with a sheet of Bacofoil® Non-Stick foil, dull side up. Place the mackerel in the tin and squeeze over the lemon juice before cooking for 15 minutes at 200°C/Gas mark 6.
Meanwhile, place the sliced mushrooms on a baking sheet (lined again with a sheet of Bacofoil® Non-Stick) and place under a hot grill for 3-4 minutes.
Put the spinach in a pan with a splash of boiling water and cook over a medium heat until just wilted.
When ready to serve, drain the spinach and season with salt and pepper and a pinch of nutmeg, and sprinkle over the pine nuts. Tip the grilled mushrooms and the released juices over the spinach and divide between two plates. Top each one with a mackerel fillet.
