Very simple and quick recipe. Put the mackerel apple and lemon juice in a food processor and blitz until it is broken up. then add the crème fraiche and blitz again, add until you have a nice creamy, smooth consistency.  You may need to add more apple if you like the pate to be sweeter or alternatively more lemon if you want it to have more kick.
This recipe is perfect for lunch to have with oatcakes or even better have it with brioche and make it as a simple canapé for your guests to nibble on.
