Note

For best results, ensure the mackerel is fresh and flaky. If the fish is very oily, you may reduce or omit the added oil.

This salad is best served fresh. If preparing ahead, keep the mackerel separate from the vegetables until serving to prevent sogginess.

You can add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of vinegar for extra brightness if desired.

Ensure all vegetables are thoroughly washed and dried before chopping to maintain texture.
