Oven-Roasted Sardines

These smallish-fish are loaded with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, full of flavour and fast to cook. Crisp them in the oven at high heat and eat them like a snack. No, really. You’ll love them.

Ingredients
  

  • 12 sardines cleaned
  • 60 ml olive oil
  • 1 tsp coarse salt
  • ½ tsp ground cumin

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C.
  2. Place the sardines on a baking tray and cover with olive oil. Sprinkle the salt and cumin evenly over the fish, then place the tray in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn the fish over and continue to cook for another 15 minutes or until cooked through. Let cool slightly, then dig in.
