Description
Smoked mackerel, Irish beetroot and horseradish are a dream salad combination created by Rory O’Connell of Ballymaloe Cookery School. This recipe is quick and easy and is a healthy lunch or starter, lovely with a slice of brown yeast bread and butter or crusty white bread. This take on the recipe is from Grace O’ Driscoll.
