A classic potato salad with a little kick of lemon and horseradish

Inspired by the seasonal mackerel run at Blackpool sands

Mackerel are a migratory fish which swim in large shoals near the surface. During the winter season, the fish live near the seabed off the southwest coast of Norway, and in this period they eat very little. This changes between April and May, when the mackerel swim to the central parts of the North Sea to spawn. They usually arrive in our waters around late spring and leave early autumn.

Talking to Bert,a retired Michelin trained chef who now works the gate for a bit of splash money, the Mackerel usually come into this area around May/June time. This year was no exception. 

It was these summer mackerel that reminded me of this potato salad with lemon and horseradish recipe.
