Over Easter time, pickled fish is a staple with a few other seafood dishes, as well as plenty of hot cross buns of course! A new way with pickled fish…pop them in a taco! They are so simple, just grab your ingredients, chop up some salsa and pop them in your taco shells! You can either make the pickled fish as your love it, or grab the Food Lover’s Pickled Hake, it’s that much easier!
Want to get more creative? Use a roti and use roti like a taco paired with a yoghurt raita.
