Breaded pilchards and sardines in scented Cervia salt
An easy and tasty recipe, made unique by the unmistakable flavour of Cervia salt.
Ingredients
- 200 g pilchards
- 100 g pilchards
- 200 g white flour
- 100 g yellow flour
- 400 g unseasoned breadcrumbs
- 4 eggs
- oil
- scented Cervia salt
- lemon wedges
Preparation
Clean the pilchards and sardines of their heads and entrails, removing the central bone.
Dip them in the previously mixed white and yellow flour, then in beaten egg and breadcrumbs.
Fry for about ten minutes in mild extra virgin olive oil (or, alternatively, in peanut oil, which has a very high smoke point and is therefore particularly suitable for frying).
Serve hot with the lemon wedges after sprinkling them with salt.
