How to make Sardines Stuffed with Ham:
- We clean the sardines well, removing the heads and the bones, season to taste. Next, we finely chop the sweet ham, also known as York ham, and mix it with the grated cheese
- We place the open sardines with the skin down on the work table and fill them by placing a little of the previous mixture of ham and cheese in the center. We close them very carefully, pass them through the flour and then through the beaten egg and breadcrumbs.
- We fry the stuffed and battered sardines in plenty of not very hot olive oil. When they are ready, drain them and reserve on absorbent paper to remove excess fat.
- Finally, we serve the sardines stuffed with ham and cheese accompanied by a small salad made with julienned lettuce and cherry tomatoes, or the green salad of your choice
