POP'S TOMATO-BRAISED SARDINES



Pop's Tomato-Braised Sardines image

My husband spent 2 years in the Philippines as a missionary. Along with his life-changing experience, he brought home a rich culinary repertoire that he incorporated into our family recipes. He passed away in 2016, and these recipes have become things our children treasure. They are part of the memories and fabric that keep his memory bright and alive. Here is "ginisang sardinas" which is a wonderful way to use canned sardines. This is usually eaten spooned over rice per each individual's desire/taste.

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon ground paprika
¼ large onion, diced
½ teaspoon tomato paste
1 ½ cups halved cherry tomatoes
½ cup white cooking wine
¼ cup water
1 tablespoon fish sauce
2 (4 ounce) cans sardines, drained
2 limes, juiced, divided

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat until warm. Add garlic powder and paprika; cook until you can smell the spices, about 1 minute. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Mix in tomato paste and cook for 1 to 2 minutes longer. Add cherry tomatoes and mix until well combined. Cover the pan and cook until tomatoes begin to release their liquid, about 5 minutes.
  • While tomatoes are cooking, combine remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil with 1/2 of the lime juice. Add sardines and gently toss to coat with lime marinade.
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Remove the lid from the skillet. Pour cooking wine in with onion and tomatoes; stir well. Add water and fish sauce; bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer until liquid begins to reduce, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove sardines from the marinade and place on top of tomato sauce. Discard remaining marinade.
  • Place under the preheated broiler until sardines are well cooked and some of the tomatoes are charred, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Pour remaining lime juice over the sardines and serve.

SARDINE TOASTS WITH TOMATO AND SWEET ONION



Sardine Toasts With Tomato and Sweet Onion image

A classic pantry meal, sardine toasts are just the thing to eat when you're starving and there's nothing in the house for dinner. If you don't have tomatoes, just leave them out. With their saline flavor and buttery texture, all sardines need is some good bread and a little crunchy onion to set them off.

SARDINE AND BALSAMIC TOMATO PANINI



Sardine and Balsamic Tomato Panini image

Sardines are a fantastic underused food. Found this sandwich recipe in The Wichita Eagle who wrote, "The noble sardine does not get much respect in this country, although lots of older folks grew up enjoying it on crackers. In reality, it's an inexpensive, handy and healthy food to keep on hand. Here's a recipe that puts it to good use. It's adapted from "200 Best Panini Recipes" by Tiffany Collins (Rose, $24.95)."

Tips:

  • When choosing sardines for this recipe, look for ones that are packed in olive oil. This will give the panini a richer flavor and help to keep the fish moist.
  • If you don't have balsamic vinegar on hand, you can substitute red wine vinegar or lemon juice.
  • Be sure to drain the sardines well before adding them to the panini. This will help to prevent the bread from getting soggy.
  • If you like your panini with a bit of a kick, feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the mayonnaise mixture.
  • Serve the panini immediately after it is grilled. This will ensure that the bread is crispy and the cheese is melted and gooey.
