Ingredients to make SARDINES WRAPPED IN BRICK PASTA:
- 12 small sardines
- 1 package of brick paste
- 1 leek
- 1 Italian green pepper
- 12 black olives
- 1 teaspoon fresh oregano
- 1 lemon
- olive oil for frying
- salted
- black pepper
- 4 tomatoes and chopped parsley
How to make SARDINES WRAPPED IN BRICK PASTA:
- Buy gutted sardines. Wash and remove their heads.
- Open them on one side, leaving them in the shape of a book, removing the spine (if the sardines were very small, it would not be necessary to remove the spine).
- Dry well with absorbent paper and add salt and pepper, sprinkling them with a few drops of lemon, reserving them in the fridge.
- Wash the white stem of the leek and cut lengthwise; chop into very fine cubes. Put a saucepan and mix with the green pepper also chopped and the chopped olives, add the oregano and salt slightly.
- Fill the sardines with a small portion of this mixture and give it its shape again. Roll the sardines in the brick paste in such a way that the sides are sealed, so that they do not open when frying.
- Fry in abundant hot oil, letting them drain on absorbent kitchen paper.
- They are served on slices of tomato and sprinkled parsley.
