Sensational Salt-bath Sardines

No comments
Sardines and mackerel are two of the very best BBQ fish. Encased in sea-salt, quickly grilled, (guts-in) then drizzled with a strong green extra virgin olive oil with a hearty squeeze of limes, simply sublime!
 

Ingredients

  • 12 large sardines
  • 1 pack of coarse sea salt
  • 25 ml Extra Virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • Sea salt and rainbow peppercorn to taste
  • Foil
Serves: 4       whats this
 

Directions

  1. Wash the sardines and gut or not (adds flavour)
  2. Sprinkle a good layer of sea salt on foil and place sardines on top, then sprinkle more salt over, cover and refrigerate for at least hour.
  3. Remove sardines from the fridge, brush off most of the salt and place on a fish grill tray
