Ingredients

  • Mediterranean sardines 18
  • Thyme 3 sprigs
  • Bay leaves 2

Method

  1. Scale the sardines thoroughly. Remove the heads, thus giving the dish its name (from the Spanish escabechar, to decapitate), and carefully fillet the fish.
  2. Cover the sardine fillets with the finely chopped celery, herbs and spices to marinate.
  3. Cover with olive oil and chill for 24 hours before eating.
