Fried sardines with fried rice and fried egg were one of my favorite meals to eat when I was growing up in the Philippines. It’s really easy, and it’s basically the same as this Jamaican recipe. I personally like to eat it with vinegar on the side, but that’s optional.

Ingredients:

• 1 can sardines in oil
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 Small onion
• Black pepper
• 1 egg
• Rice

Instructions:

1. Heat up the oil from the sardine can in the pan.
2. Sauté garlic and onion until caramelized.
3. Add sardines and cook for a little bit.
4. Add pepper to taste. Depending on the sardines, it might already be salty.
5. Fry the egg and the rice in the residual oil.
