For busy cooks and tinned fish lovers looking to add a little heat to quick, easy meals, La Narval Sardines in Spicy Olive Oil combine firm, juicy sardines with olive oil and piri-piri for a rich, savoury flavour and balanced chilli kick. Open a tin for instant tapas, pile them onto toast or make them the starting point for an effortless supper.
Sustainably sourced from the Gulf of Cádiz and the Algarve, the sardines are fished in season by small boats and processed entirely by hand. They're gently cooked in water and salt before being packed in chilli-infused olive oil, helping them retain their firm texture while taking on just the right amount of heat.
Serve simply with good bread and lemon, add to a plate of tapas or flake through warm potatoes or pasta. Add olives, pickles and something cold to drink and you've got a tinned fish supper with very little effort required.
