Method

Pre-heat grill or barbecue

To make the spicy marinade, heat the oil in a small pan and cook the onion until soft, stir in the spices and tomato purée then add the wine.  Leave to cool.

To make the sweet marinade, blend all the ingredients together.

Cut the herring or mackerel fillets into 5cm (2") pieces.  Thread onto skewers and divide between two shallow dishes.

Pour over the prepared marinades, cover and leave to marinate in a cool place.

Cook over a prepared barbecue or under a hot grill for about 10 minutes, turning frequently and basting with any remaining marinade.
