Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 5

32 fresh anchovies or 16 sardines (about 1 1/4 pounds), cleaned
1 cup toasted unseasoned dry breadcrumbs
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil, for frying
Fresh lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Rinse fish and shake lightly to dry slightly, leaving some water on to help breadcrumbs adhere. Spread breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl or pie dish; season with salt and pepper.
  • In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet, heat 1/4 inch oil over high until shimmering. (Test by dropping a breadcrumb; if it sizzles and floats instantly, the oil is hot enough for frying.) Working in batches so as not to crowd, dredge fish in breadcrumbs and lay flat in skillet. Reduce heat to medium and cook until fish are golden brown on bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip fish, one at a time, and continue to cook until tender when pressed in center and flesh is opaque, 2 to 3 minutes more. Using a slotted spatula, transfer fish to prepared baking sheet; sprinkle with salt. Between batches, increase heat and strain out browned crumbs, or wipe out pan as needed.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb fresh anchovies ((thawed, if frozen))
1-1.5 cups all-purpose flour
1.5 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1-2 cups vegetable oil (for frying (canola, soybean oil, corn oil, or sunflower seed oil work great!))
Lemon wedges (for serving)
½ cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon sweet pickle relish
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Optional: pinch of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and/or ½ teaspoon yellow mustard

Steps:

  • Rinse the anchovies in water. Clean the anchovies by cutting off the head, then use your fingers to scoop out the innards, guts, and spine from the anchovies. The spine might need to be pinched and pulled out.
  • Combine the flour with the salt and pepper (and other seasonings, if using-see notes), on a large plate or bowl and mix well.
  • Add the cleaned anchovies to the seasoned flour and toss/stir to coat the anchovies in the flour completely.

Provided by Jose Garces

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
3 large garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
2 plum tomatoes, quartered
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoons red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4-5 cups vegetable oil
1/4 pound fresh anchovies (about 8 fillets)
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
1 large egg
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • In food processor, finely grind almonds. Add garlic, tomatoes, vinegar, pepper flakes, and salt, and purée until paste forms, scraping down sides occasionally. Add parsley and with motor running, slowly add oil.
  • In large bowl, mix together flour, salt, and pepper. In 4-quart deep, heavy pot over high heat, heat 2 inches oil until deep-fat thermometer registers 350°F.
  • Dredge half of anchovies in flour mixture, tossing to coat well. Transfer to sieve and shake to remove excess flour. Fry, stirring frequently to separate, until golden, about 3 minutes, then transfer with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining anchovies, returning oil to 350°F between batches.
  • In small nonstick skillet over moderate heat, melt butter. Crack egg into pan and cook until white is firm and opaque, but yolk is still runny, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer with slotted spatula to paper towels to drain. Keep warm.
  • Arrange anchovies on platter and sprinkle with lemon juice. Top with fried egg and serve with Salbixtada sauce alongside.
