This wonderfully vibrant red mullet recipe from the Costardi Brothers keeps the ingredients simple to allow them to really shine. Making the black olive and caper powders is a little time consuming, but the result is a wonderfully punchy seasoning that goes perfectly with the tomatoes and fresh mullet.
