• Cut mackerel into bite-sized pieces.
• Heat vegetable oil in a pan, cut red onion and capsicum into thin slices and fry until browned and softened
• Tear lettuce into bite-size pieces, cut herb mustard into 2 to 3 cm lengths and drain in water to crisp them up. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half.
• Place the drained salad in a dish, put the heated vegetables on top of it, and serve with Japanese mayonnaise sauce in a small dish on the side.
• Place the mackerel in the pan side by side, avoiding overlapping.
• Fry mackerel to brown, and finish with teriyaki garlic sauce.
• Put the ginger on top, place the lid directly on the food, and cook over medium heat for 10-12 minutes. Then add the mackerel to the salad.
• Boil down the remaining sauce slowly and pour it over the mackerel.

Tips: Frying mackerel to a golden brown is the key. It helps to preserve the taste. If you use Teflon coated pans, vegetable oil is not necessary
