Sardines Puff

I always keep a few packets of plain paratha flat bread in the freezer and a few cans of tomato sardine in the pantry. This is one of the simplest yet delicious sardine puff. Yes, you won’t believe how crazy simple they are to make.  Just let the oven do the job, no deep-frying and major cleaning.  I don’t remember where I got this recipe from but I have had the pure joy of making and eating them many times. My kids LOVE them too!

You can also use leftover chicken curry and potato for the fillings. Very yummy!

Do try it out and let me know the verdict ya.

Sardine Puff

Ingredients

10 pieces of frozen plain Paratha Flat Bread (I used Kawan Brand)

1 small can of sardines in tomato sauce

1 yellow onion – finely chopped

1 red chili – seeded and finely sliced

2 tbsp mayonnaise

Egg Wash

1 whole egg + 1 tsp water – slightly beaten 

Directions

Thaw the paratha flat bread in room temperature for 15 minutes.  

Place the sardines in a bowl, drained the tomato sauce for dryer fillings and break them up with a fork then add the rest of the ingredients.  Mix well. 

Cut the bread into 4 pieces with a pizza cutter.  Then make 2 - 3 small cuts on just two pieces of the cut-out bread. This will be the cover of the puff.  Refer below. 

Add a spoon of the filling and cover the top with the other piece of the cut-out bread. Using the tines of a fork, press down on the edges of the puffs to seal them. Glaze the top with egg wash.

Place on a baking sheet. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180C for about 30 minutes or until golden brown. Let it cool. Enjoy!
