I’ve eaten canned sardines all my life. Never thought I could fry them. Just tried this recipe. They were lovely! Easy and great taste. Thank you so much! This will be a staple from now on.
For those people not too familiar with sardines, definitely choose the small ones. In larger sardines, the spine is both larger and more calcified, which makes for a grittiness that I don't like. OTOH if you don't mind that, you will get more calcium in your diet with the bigger ones, and they are usually cheaper. Also, there is a wide range of quality in canned sardines. Some cheap brands use cottonseed oil instead of olive oil. Take your time, read the cans and remember this is a food where cost and quality usually go hand in hand.
I recently bought a case of brisling sardines. They’re quite small compared to normal ones. But I find them harder to eat and they have a stronger, bitter fish taste. My favorite sardines are in water or sunflower oil. Around here it’s usually canola/mix oils, soybean, or olive oils. The most calcified ones I’ve seen are the vertical cans from the Phillipines. Good for budget, but not mouth feels. I can feel the bones and the grit. 😨 I like fish with a cleaner taste.
Half Swedish and Dutch born in Spain Alicante, thanks to you I started cooking Spanish dishes now for a couple of years. Thanks for all the new easy nice dishes.
I'd never thought of frying canned sardines before, but now I 'm definitely going to try this method! Your videos have given me a whole new set of recipes and methods. Thank you so much!
Wow, never EVER would have thought of something like that. Don't ya' just love UA-cam? A world of learning and new experiences at a click. Can't wait to try this one!
Ok, I made this and just wolfed it down!! Delicious!! Dangerous though, I could eat about 5 tins of this!! lol Thanks for sharing this idea!@@SpainonaFork
I’ve always got a few tins of sardines in the cupboard as they’re so handy - I’ve not made this recipe though so it’ll be my next one to try out. There was a lovely fish restaurant where I used to stay in Mallorca & their fried whitebait was heavenly so this definitely appeals to me.
My parents lived in Spain when my father was stationed there for a while when he was in the Navy. My Mom said they used to fry fresh caught sardines & eat them whole, bones & all! I’ve never tried fried sardines & fresh sardines are hard to find in the southern part of the USA. I will give this recipe with canned sardines a try. Thanks!
I just tied this even though I had none of the right ingredients and it still came out great. I only had boneless/skinless sardines. I used italian seasoning, with lime juice, and jarred minced garlic for the aioli. Can’t wait to try it with the right ingredients!
I grew up eating Sardines still enjoy them, I never heard or thought of frying Sardines; they look absolutely delicious, I can’t wait to try them, thanks for sharing your recipe 😊
As much as I've eaten sardines, fried was the one way I haven't. I will definitely make this today! Looks delicious. Thank you for sharing this recipe! 🎉
@@SpainonaFork Thanks 😁 Our 6 yr old son L❤️v it. Had to make some more. Family showed me how to make it with onions, green peppers garlic butter sauce in a pan. Then we would make sandwiches 🥪
I just started exploring sardines and was so happy to find this recipe. Lovely video, easy to follow, so I DID! I made this and LOVED it! Thank you so much for sharing such lovely recipes with us, you’re much appreciated! Stay well 🌸
I usually just eat sardines out of the can, for decades. Suddenly, I wondered if anyone ever fried them. Thanks for the video. Gonna try this. Gracias!
Thank you Albert! I really appreciated this recipe, I bought tins of sardines on sale and I had no clue how to prepare & eat them. Looking forward to this recipe & the aioli sauce... Blessings ❤️
This looks absolutely delicious ! I will definitely have this on my menu soon...l love sardines and sometimes cook them with angel hair pasta, a touch of fennel and marinated artichokes/garlic.... I also make a salad with mixed greens, hearts of palm and thinly cut red onion...and using the drained sardine oil on salad..wonderful🥰
Spanish 🇪🇸 person here. Try this next time. I learnt after a long time that just making a flour and water slurry WITHOUT Egg makes frying things so much crispier. Seriously try it.
With most cooking channels I find a mixed bag with about half of the recipes not to my liking. Your recipes were all right in my lane so far. The low effort is an added bonus. Those sardines are going to make my dinner table tomorrow. Good thing that I have a couple of cans of Spanish sardines in my pantry. Thanks for sharing.
I love sardines, it's such a healthy and inexpensive source of healthy fats and proteins. I wish I just had more ideas of what to do with them, so you have no idea how happy I was to find this video 😃🥰
Pasta con la sarde is a great pasta dish, You can mash them while with bread crumbs or crackers with a little flour and egg and seasoned how you like and make fried fish Pattie’s with them. Or sauté some onion and garlic and chilis then add tomato sauce or canned chunked tomatoes and season how you like and serve over rice or noodles
I saw this notification and immediately made two pieces of toast with sardines and cracked pepper for a late night supper… I will definitely do this recipe next!
Sir... i tried this recipe. You have delivered me to Nirvana. Seriously delicous. I added just a touch of Chipotle to the mayo, and it was def my favorite. I love sardines with all my heart, so this was perfect. ❤
From Galicia, northwest of Spain, grilled sardines, in June and July when they are very fatty and with corn bread, are my favorite fish dish. The smaller sardines, which we call "xoubiñas", dipped in flour and fried in olive oil, are also wonderful, they are eaten whole. I have never seen canned sardines fried, I eat canned sardines with bread, baguette type, but I will try to make them fried, as the Spanish saying goes " nunca te acostaras sin saber una cosa mas / you will never go to bed without knowing one new thing"
Looks really tasty. Being used to a more Scandinavian style prep for a snack of DEENZ, frying them the way you did is next on my way of enjoying canned sarDEENZ.
I'll be trying this, maybe tomorrow! I have one can left of King Oscar Sprats in mediterranean sauce with black olives. I'll keep the sauce and olives for an aragula salad on the side! Thanks for the great idea!
Always wondered if I could make this dish with canned sardines. Got an imported 2lb tin to use up. Between this and sardine pasta that should do the trick :)
Love your channel, thank you! I feed sardines to my elderly dog, since I started doing that his coat shines. Perhaps, sardines will help my hair be just as healthy! In England, we used to call larger sardines, pilchards.
Made this last night using a tin of sardines. Spanish and Portuguese folks really love their fish. Americans like fish differently. This was Delicious.
That was so awesome! Just awesome! I gotta give it a try! I am gonna buy some canned sardines and try. Wow what a cool recipe! Thanks! Until next time, hasta luego! Ciao!
They look wonderful. Takes me back to eating fried smelts up around the great lakes. A basket of those and some french fries with some hot sauce.......
We made these last night. It was really good, the texture was good, light crunch, but two things......the sardines broke pretty easily when coating with flour and eggs. The second thing I didnt like, was two cans of sardines was not enough for us!! lol..... we will try this with fresh sardines..
Albert: Delicious. I have sardines in olive oil now (always in stock), so a definite WILL-make. Question: Can I add the oil from the sardines into the alioli, or will that somehow throw it off and make it *_"too sardine-y"_* in flavor? Thanks again. (Fan from San Francisco, California.) *!!~
Hi from Melbourne Australia. I love your recipes all so easy to make and delicious. I’ve been lucky enough to travel to Spain and let’s say the country has my type of food. I looked up your sponsor and got a local Colombian restaurant here so I guess La Tienda is only for US residents

Yes
You can fry anything that will
sit still long enough.
Good Luck
Yep delicious

Calcium is a metal. If our bones are made of metal, does that make us robots,(androids)?

Can you use frozen sardines the same way?
@@PaulWright-o2tgo back to school. Calcium is mineral vital for your health.
The ones I used were large and no grittiness.

I think I’d probably polish off that whole plate myself! Delicious. Canned sardines are such good value and incredibly healthy. Bravo!
Yes!!! Much love :)
No kidding. That is not a meal you share, its one you hide in the pantry and eat before anyone knows what you are doing.

Hope you all enjoy! Much love :)

Spanish 🇪🇸 person here. Try this next time. I learnt after a long time that just making a flour and water slurry WITHOUT Egg makes frying things so much crispier. Seriously try it.
Is that flour and water mixed together?
@@andreagriffin8437Yes, that is what a slurry is. I am going to try it too.
@@SgettieddiHow was it?
@@rx0102 It worked very well- I added a 1/2 tsp of Old Bay to the flour before mixing it with water. I liked it so much, I made it 2x now!
Brilliant looks quite easy just what we want thanks
Much love :)
I eat sardines 4 or 5 meals a week. I’ll have to try this, but with some gluten free “flour” or cornmeal. Gracias!
Sounds great! Much love :)

Sardines is an excellent treatment for Psoriasis, I would say it cured me. High in omega 3 fatty acids may be the reason
Much love :)
Just made this tonight, was excellent. Now I want to do it with other types of fish
Sounds great! Much love :)
Fantastic option. I'm trying that TODAY!
Hope you enjoy! Much love :)

I have been making this with sprat in the place of sardines. Kids love it in the afternoon with garlic bread or potato wedges.
Sounds great! Much love :)

I make this all the time. It’s my favorite breakfast. I had no idea that it was Spanish I thought I invented it. 🤣🤣

Much love :)
I love this idea. I'll definitely be trying it out.
Hope you enjoy! Much love :)
Interesting...🤔
If using fresh or previously frozen sardines, how long to fry them? Perhaps a minute or two longer than canned?
Yes 3 minutes per side tops should do it! Much love :)
I love sardines on pizza, and I love fried fish. Now I want to try this. 🐟🥫
Yes! Much love :)
My family likes them with olive oil and vinegar. Delicious. If you do try them with with garlic butter , try roasting the garlic first.
Sounds great! Much love :)
I’m gonna try this right now!
Hope you enjoy! Much love :)
Nice snack.
Thank you! Much love :)
Hi from Melbourne Australia. I love your recipes all so easy to make and delicious. I’ve been lucky enough to travel to Spain and let’s say the country has my type of food. I looked up your sponsor and got a local Colombian restaurant here so I guess La Tienda is only for US residents
