Ah! The second half of my birthday sardines was cooked differently a day or so later. A friend thought from a photo of them that the olive oil was lemon juice, so this time I added lemon and orange juice and used cumin seeds instead of sumac. I ate this lot with potato and sweet potato baked with garlic, rosemary and olive oil. It wasn’t my birthday dinner but another delicious meal in Melbourne’s latest lockdown.
Ingredients
16 filleted sardines
1/2 lemon
1/2 orange

Thanks Sherry. Yes I saw your sardines post. They are delicious for winter meals and very flexible. Thanks for the birthday greetings. The day was a bit different to what was planned due to lockdown but still pleasant!
