A lunch of grilled mackerel and tomatoes

Those who know the book well will know that Nigel's was a supper and the tomatoes are described as 'more tomatoes'. Those who know this will also have spotted that I'm not following a sequence, have skipped ahead a little and have done any tomato dishes recently. I'm going on holiday in a couple of weeks and in a bid to lose a few pounds before I go have dropped carbs from my diet where possible, meaning that Nigel has had to go on the back burner just for a couple of weeks. This dish, however, is a good high protein meal so still could be enjoyed. It is also boiling hot today and we sat outside with this lovely lunch - it felt like we were already abroad, reminding me of some of the lovely yet simple dishes you get in Spain. The flavours in this were perfect and even the daughter tucked in with gusto, which considering there were bones was quite unlike her. So, once again Nigel, well done you for changing us!
