Chermoula BBQ Sardines

  • 8 whole sardines, cleaned
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • For the Chermoula Sauce
  • 1 pack each of coriander and parsley
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 preserved lemon
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • ½ tsp each of paprika and chilli flakes
  • 75ml olive oil
  • Put all of the sauce ingredients into a food processor with some salt and pepper, and blitz until well combined. Meanwhile, heat up a barbecue and rub the fish all over with oil, and season well. Thread the sardines - head to tail - onto metal skewers, and cook on the coals for 3 mins on each side, or until cooked and nicely charred. Drizzle all over with the chermoula, and serve with crusty bread.
