A recipe that is quite suitable for a family picnic, when you don't want to spend a lot of time making marinades and sauces, but want to quickly light up the grill. You can prepare a basic sauce in advance and bring it in a container from home. It is simple and very effective: soy sauce is thickened with starch to the state of a glossy glaze, and the addition of ginger, hot pepper, sugar and lime brings it to a flavor crescendo. Perhaps for a more neutral, delicate fish , such a chorus of bright spices would be too much, but the impudent taste of mackerel only benefits from it and acquires an interesting Asian accent.

Fresh mackerel has a strong and powerful character - just what you need for grilling, when all the sensations should be bright to the point of spiciness. You don't even need a marinade for it - just olive oil, garlic, a little salt and pepper. All you need is to squeeze lemon onto the fish. However, lemon is not necessary either, if you accompany grilled fish with plenty of greenery, it will also accurately beat off the specific smell that mackerel sometimes has. Try cooking mackerel according to this recipe, in which Georgian roots are visible. Everything is elementary: hot fish with a smoky aroma, cold sauce with a shock dose of cilantro, and in total - such a fresh feeling, as if the fish was just caught and fried right on the shore.
