Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: If using fresh mackerel, clean and fillet the fish. If using smoked mackerel, simply flake the flesh into bite-sized pieces. Clean and slice the mushrooms.
- Cook the Mushrooms: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and have released their moisture.
- Add the Mackerel: Once the mushrooms are cooked, add the mackerel to the skillet. Gently fold it into the mushrooms and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
- Whisk the Eggs: In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- Scramble the Eggs: Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet with the mackerel and mushrooms. Stir gently with a spatula, allowing the eggs to cook evenly. Continue to cook until the eggs are just set, about 3-5 minutes.
- Serve: Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
