Cornish BBQ Recipes

1. Cut deep slits into one side of each of the mackerel and brush all over with olive oil.

3. Cook the mackerel on the barbecue for 5 minutes on each side until cooked. 

Prawns With Cornish Saffron Aioli

Ingredients:

• 3-4 raw shell on prawns per person
• Pinch of saffron (preferably from the Cornish Saffron Co)
• 2 egg yolks
• 1 garlic clove
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• Juice of half a lemon
• 200 ml of Cornish rapeseed oil or olive oil

Method:

1. Put the saffron in a small bowl with 1 tbsp boiling water. Leave for 10 mins to cool and for the water to turn a golden colour.
2. Add the egg yolks, garlic, mustard and lemon juice in a jug or a tall container with a pinch of salt and blitz with a stick blender or food processor until smooth. Slowly add the olive oil, a small drizzle at a time, keeping the blender on, until you get a thick, glossy mayonnaise.
3. Season with black pepper, then stir in the saffron water to loosen the aïoli and turn it a golden hue. Cover the surface and chill until ready to serve. Add a splash of water or lemon juice, to serve, if your aïoli thickens up too much in the fridge.
4. BBQ the prawns for a few minutes on each side and served ready to dip in the aïoli.
