• Add 1/2 a tomato tin of water,cover and simmer for 25 minutes unti potatoes ae cooked.
• Grill peppers, blister skin, then place into a plastic back, until the skin is easy to remove. Once removed slice then add to the pan with the fish / chorizo.

Steps:

• Combine the lemon juice, 4 tablespoons olive oil, rosemary, garlic and ground pepper in a shallow dish. Add the tuna and turn to coat well on all sides. Let marinate for 1 hour, turning tuna from time to time.
• Preheat a grill or broiler. Brush the remaining teaspoon of olive oil over both sides of the pepper halves. Grill or broil the tuna and peppers until the tuna is charred on the outside but still pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side, and until the peppers are crisp-tender, about 3 minutes per side. Divide among 4 plates, season the tuna with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Roast the pepper directly over a gas burner or under the broiler, turning often until uniformly charred. Remove from the heat, and place in a bowl. Cover tightly, and allow to cool.
• While you're waiting for the pepper to cool, make the tuna filling. Combine the garlic and a generous pinch of salt in a mortar and pestle, and mash to a paste. Add the anchovy, if using, and mash with the garlic. Add the capers, and mash together. In a bowl, break up the tuna with a fork, then stir in the garlic mixture, the lemon juice, olive oil and the yogurt. Add more yogurt or olive oil if the mixture seems dry. Season to taste with pepper (it should not need salt), and stir in the parsley.
• When the pepper is cool enough to handle, peel and discard the blackened skin, rinse briefly and pat dry. Cut away the top, then cut or pull apart the pepper into thirds. Remove seeds and membranes, holding the pepper over a bowl so that you can catch any juice. Lay the pepper pieces on a plate. Season with a little salt and pepper if desired, and fill with the tuna mixture. Serve.

Steps:

• Season mackerel with salt, black pepper and paprika. Let fillets rest at room temperature while preparing vegetables.
• Set a large skillet over medium heat and add 5 tablespoons oil. Then add leeks, carrots, bell peppers and thyme, cooking them until they soften, about 10 to 12 minutes. Add garlic, stirring gently, and cook for 2 minutes more. Add wine and cook until most of liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes. Season to taste with more salt, pepper and sherry vinegar, then transfer to one side of a serving platter.
• Wipe the skillet with a paper towel, add remaining oil, and set over high heat. When oil is hot, add mackerel in one layer, skin side down. Cook for 3 minutes, then flip and cook for 1 to 2 minutes longer, until fish is cooked through. Add fillets to platter and spoon vegetables on top of fish.
