Sardine Tart

sardine tartI don't know why I love sardine. I just do. I think it is simple, easy to make, cheap and yummy to eat. That is more than enough reasons to like sardine, don't you think? Anyways, yesterday I made some of these sardine tarts. Truth is, I wasn't sure what to make when I bought the flaky dough sheet. I knew that the filling is going to be sardine but not of the shape. I thought of making sardine rolls but then I wrongly cut the dough so I just let it flow and thus emerges the Sardine Tart. All within 30min! Hah! Rachel Ray, here I come!


Sardine Tart
makes 24 in mini muffin tray

1 can Pillsbury Flaky Dough Sheet
1 can sardine in tomato sauce, 5.5oz
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
1/3 serrano chili, finely chopped (optional)
3 tbsp ketchup
salt and sugar

1. Preheat oven at 375F

2. In a bowl, mix everything except the dough sheet and taste.

3. Lay the dough sheet on to a flat area (I used my wood chopping board) and cut into 24 pieces.

4. Fit the dough into the mini muffin pan and fill with the sardine mix.

5. Put it into the oven and bake for 13-15min.

Farina, look great and I think it taste great as well. BTW can you get the sardin cap ayam like the one in Malaysia. When I was living in Boston, they do not have such 'sardin'.

Have a nice day.

My favorite is sardine too! Sardine roll is the best but your sardine tart is at another level. Cute presentation too.

I love sardine but not Carlos. He can't stand it so if I want some sardine I will eat it when he is not around. I love how you present your sardin tarts.

Cute tart base. Good idea as this square shape sure will not waste the pastry from odd cuts.
