Sardine Roti John


Sardine Roti John

Ingredients for

6 mini wholemeal baguettes - halves
1 tin sardines in tomato sauce
1 large white onion - chopped
2 garlic - chopped
2 green chillies - sliced
ground black pepper
3 eggs
extra virgin olive oil
Method
Pour out half of the tomamto sauce in the sardines so that it'll not be too wet later. Place the whole tin of sardiens in a large bowl. Mash with a fork. Add in chopped onions, garlic and chillies. Sprinkle some ground black pepper. Crack all eggs into bowl. Mix well. Heat oil. Take the already halved baguette and spread a heapful of sardine mix. Place in hot oil with the spread mixture down. Shallow fry till it browns. Flip to crisp the other side. Serve warm/hot.

You can also shallow fry with ghee. It'll gives a rich buttery taste. Another substitute is to use, extra virgin olive oil + a dollop of salted butter. Butter burns fast thus with some oil added, it'll slows down the burning process. It'll taste just as great.
