All ingredients
2 tins (115 g each) la belle-iloise Luzienne Sardines
1 egg
800 g waxy potatoes
2 teaspoons chopped parsley
1 onion
½ garlic clove
Salt and pepper
Let's get started
-
Step 1Preheat the oven to 220 °C (gas mark 7/8).
-
Step 2Peel and grate the potatoes, garlic and onion.
-
Step 3In a bowl, combine all three ingredients nicely with the seasoning and parsley.
-
Step 4Thoroughly drain any excess juices and add the egg.
-
Step 5Heat up a little oil in a warm frying pan and pour in the mixture, spreading it out evenly and flattening it.
-
Step 6Place the sardines on top, pressing them lightly down. Reserve the sauce and oil from the tins.
-
Step 7Reduce the heat and cook for about 10 minutes untouched until lightly coloured on the sides.
-
Step 8Slide onto an oven-safe baking tray and bake for 10 minutes, until achieving a nice golden brown colour.
-
Step 9Serve together with a green salad and the reserved sardine sauce, so everyone can spoon on as much as they like!
- Try this recipe with our different sardines in sauce (two chillis, tapenade, tomato, …) to vary the flavours and the pleasure!
- Add slices of Basque Country cheese before placing the tart in the oven.
- Thoroughly draining any excess juices prior to cooking guarantees more hold and crispness.
- If you used a frying pan with a detachable handle, you can simply pop it in the oven to bake the tart (without the handle of course).
