Directions
Melt the margarine (or butter) and cook the onion in it until transparent.
Add the chopped rhubarb, season with pepper and salt and continue to cook gently for 5 minutes.
Then add bread crumbs and stir the mixture.
Now lay the mackerel filets out flat, skin side down, and spread the stuffing on them.
Roll each up, put them in a greased oven dish and cook them in a moderate oven (400F) for 15 to 20 minutes.
While the fish are being cooked, make the rhubarb sauce by placing all the ingredients listed in a saucepan and stewing tehm until the rhubarb is cooked and quite soft.
This will take 10 minutes or a little longer.
Then put the cooked rhubarb through a fine sieve or the blender, to make a purée of it.
This can be served either hot or cold with the cooked mackerel.
