Posh sardines on toast

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp frozen chopped shallot
  • ½ unwaxed lemon, zest of ½, juice of all
  • 1 clove/s small clove garlic
  • 1 vine tomato
  • 1 slice/s Crosta & Mollica Pane Pugliese
  • 84g Essential Sardines In Olive Oil
  • 25g Any fresh herbs to hand, to serve (optional)

Method

  1. Put the shallot in a small bowl and stir through the lemon juice and a pinch of salt; set aside. Meanwhile, peel and halve the garlic and slice the tomato.

  2. Toast the pane pugliese, then rub 1 side with ½ of the garlic and drizzle over 1 tsp of the oil from the sardine can. Arrange the tomato slices on the toast; season and top with the sardines. Drizzle over more of the oil from the can, then top with the lemon zest, pickled shallot (with some of the pickling liquor) and the herbs, if using. Cut in ½ and tuck in.

Cook’s tip

Sardines are the go-to toast option, but any canned fish would work well – try

mackerel, tuna or salmon.
