I realize that what goes into a mackerel or tuna salad can be a divisive issue. A few years back, a friend refused to eat my tuna salad because it had pickle relish in it. (He was horrified.) And the recipe writers at Serious Eats and Epicurious both have strong (and conflicting) opinions on the best tuna sandwich. For this sandwich, you need soft white fluffy bread: sliced pan, batch bread, even brioche. Make sure your mackerel fillet is pin-boned and grilled on the skin side only.

Steps to make Istanbul's Famous Mackerel Sandwich:
  1. Season both sides of the mackerel with plenty of salt and pepper and coat it in a thin layer of flour (or cornstarch).
  2. Heat some olive oil up in a frying pan, add the mackerel, and cook until both sides are browned and crispy.
  3. Slice the onion and tomato into rings and lightly toast the bread in an oven.
  4. Cut the bread in half and make a deep horizontal slice in each piece. (Don't cut all the way through.)
  5. Open up the bread and add the mackerel, onion, and tomato. Sprinkle plenty of lemon juice over the top.
  6. Your sandwich is done! Try adding in a little Italian parsley too if you feel like it.

It consists of a fried or grilled mackerel fillet and assorted vegetables stuffed in a baguette. Very simple street food item, nothing fanciful. Remove from the tray and keep warm. Best tasting mackerel is canned in olive oil, IMHO of course, and lowest calorie canned mackerel comes from mackerel canned in salt water.
