Island-Style Sardines and Rice image

This is one of my favorite recipes. My favorite way to enjoy this is in the morning, for breakfast, with some good coffee. It is made from items that are almost always found in a West Indian/Carribean kitchen. Sardines can be substituted with any canned salt fish, but the soybean oil gives it the texture that is out of this world! Very tasty if you love spicy and if you love sardines!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dish turned out really bland. I think I might have used the wrong kind of sardines.

The sardines were a bit overcooked, but the rice and sauce were delicious.

Meh, this dish was just okay. The sardines were a bit bland and the rice was a bit dry. The sauce was also a bit too tangy for my taste. I probably won't be making this again.

I made this dish last night and it was a disaster. The sardines were overcooked and the rice was mushy. The sauce was also way too spicy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This dish was a hit with my family! The sardines were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the rice was fluffy and flavorful. The sauce was also delicious, with just the right amount of spice. We'll definitely be adding this to our reg
