Brush over the red mullet, then drizzle over what remains. cover and leave for an hour or two. To make the tapenade, put all the ingredients except the oil in the processor and whiz in brief bursts to give a slightly knobly puree. Add the olive oil and process briefly to mix in. If not using immediately, scrape into a bowl, cover with clingfilm and store in the fridge. Preheat the grill, then grill the red mullet fairly close to the heat for 4-6 minutes on each side until just cooked through. Toss the rocket leaves in the dressing then divide between four plates. Lay the grilled mullet on the leaves, and heap a little mound of tapenade beside them. Add lemon wedges and serve.

You will end up with more than you need, but the remain will keep in the fridge for a week or more if covered with clingfilm.
