Fantastic tomato & fennel salad with flaked barbecued fish
The nice thing about this dish is that you have the lovely, cool salad contrasting with your warm or hot fish. It works really well and is beautifully refreshing. Feel free to use whatever fish looks nice and fresh, just ask your fishmonger to fillet and pin-bone it for you.
