Charred mackerel with tomato ceviche

It is ceviche season in the Nosey kitchen. We have tackled classic ceviche, kinilaw and now are are making this lovely lunch of grilled mackerel with a tomato and onion ceviche from chef Robert Thompson. This recipe appears on Great Britsh Chefs, and struck me for its elegant simplicity.

Robert Thompson is worth a shout out as the one-time, favourite, local chef of Nosey colleague Andrew Cormack.
