Herrings In Oatmeal With Cumberland Mustard
Cumberland Whisky Wholegrain Honey Mustard
Crispy, oatmeal-covered herrings contrast perfectly with this cool and tangy mustard mayonnaise.

Ingredients:
Serves 4

4 herrings, cleaned, with heads removed, about 225g/8oz each

juice of 1 lemon

115g / 4 oz / l cup medium oatmeal

salt and ground black pepper

green beans, to serve

For the mustard sauce

175 ml / 6 fl oz / 3/4 cup thick mayonnaise

15 ml / I tbsp Cumberland Whisky Wholegrain Honey Mustard

about 7.5 ml / 1/2 tbsp tarragon vinegar

Recipe:
To make the mustard sauce, mix the mayonnaise with the mustard and enough vinegar to produce a tangy dressing. Chill.

To bone the fish, place it skin side up on a board and press gently along the backbone. Turn the fish over and lift away the backbone in one piece. Pick out any other loose bones. Squeeze a little lemon juice over both sides of the fish and season with salt and pepper. Reshape the fish, skin side outwards.

Preheat a grill until fairly hot. Place the oatmeal on a plate and coat each herring evenly with the oatmeal, pressing it in gently.

Place the fish on a grill rack and grill for 3-4 minutes on each side until the skin is golden brown and the flesh flakes easily. Serve hot with green beans and the mustard sauce.
