Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh anchovies (gutted)
- 3 tablespoons corn flour
- 2 tablespoons sunflower oil
For The Salad
- 1 handful rocket leaves (washed)
- 1 onion (peeled & sliced into half moons)
- pickled red cabbage (optional)
- 2 lemon (cut into wedges)
- 1 drizzle pomegranate molasses
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 220 degrees Celsius.
- Brush your oven tray with sunflower oil and arrange your floured anchovies onto the tray.
- Now lightly drizzle oil over the top of your anchovies.
- Place in the middle of your oven and bake for around 20 minutes until sizzling.
- Meanwhile, mix your salad ingredients and arrange onto a plate (or prepare your bread bun if serving in bread).
- Remove your sizzling anchovies from the oven and serve immediately.
Notes
- If you are serving your fresh anchovies with a side salad, 500 grams will serve 2-3 people.
If you are serving them in bread, you can serve 4 people. - Ask your fishmonger to clean and gut your anchovies. There is no need to fillet them as you can eat the bones. They're very soft.
- We added pickled red cabbage as an ingredient because it goes well with hamsi and they are often served together.
- Calories per serving are approximate and are based on a 500 gram serving with sunflower oil.
