Ingredients (Serves 4)
First make the hollandaise. Whisk together the lemon juice, egg yolks and seasoning until smooth. Set the bowl over a pan of boiling water then pour in the melted Pure in a steady stream, a bit at a time, beating with a wooden spoon to make a creamy sauce. Taste and, if necessary, add a little more lemon juice.
Heat the oil in a pan, add the mackerel fillets and cook for 2 minutes on each side until warmed through.
Meanwhile, poach the eggs.
To serve, place a mackerel fillet to the side on a warm plate, put the toasted muffin alongside and top with a poached egg. Drizzle with hollandaise and garnish with a sprig of watercress.
