Pohane srdele / Fried Sardines

Fried Sardines

Napokon srdele na pijaci! 

Nismo ih jeli neko vrijeme, baš smo ih se poželili!

Doduše, nije bili velikih, a da ih je bilo, odmah bi završile na gradelama.

Nisu ni male za baciti :), odlučila sam ih pohati.

Ovo je moj jučerašnji ručak!

Finally, there are some sardines on Fish market!

We didn't have them for a while, we had desired to eat them!

Anyway, there was no bigger ones, if they were bigger, my husband would grilled them.

But, even smaller :), they are valuable food.

This is our yesterday's meal - fried sardines!

Kupljene su dan prije, pa su preko noći malo prokrvarile iz škrga, ne smeta!

 They were purchased the day before so they bled overnight a little from the gills, 

it doesn't matter!

Pažljivo se obrišu kuhinjskim ubrusom,

odreže se glava i rep, očiste iznutrice,

uz kičmu se lagano zarežu oštrim nožićem, prepolove se,

središnja kost se odvoji i baci. 

Carefully wipe with a kitchen towel,
cut off the head and tail, clean the intestines,
the spine is slightly growled with a sharp knife, halve it,
central bone is separated and cast.

 

Tako se dobiju ovakvi fileti.

That's how you will get these fillets.

Fileti se lagano posole, 

paniraju se u brašnu, jajima i krušnim mrvicama,

te se frigaju u ulju.

Fillets are lightly salted,

paneered in flour, egg and bread crumbs,
and fried in oil.

Uz pohane srdele sam napravila i slani krumpir posut peršinom i začinjen maslacom,

te sezonsku zelenu salatu.

Ovo može biti izvrstan ručak u ovo doba korizme.

With fried sardines I've prepared boiled potatoes sprinkled with parsley and seasoned 

with butter, and seasonal lettuce.
This can be a great lunch at this time of Lent.

Bon appetit!

Dobar tek!
