I failed at filleting the sardines. It would have just fallen apart if I tried to simmer them, so I tried deep frying them. Aside from just looking good, the flavor really soaks in, and it's got a nice coating. All in all it was pretty delicious.

The more serrated the cut edges of the fish are, the more the edges will rise up dynamically when frying. Recipe by Masapandayan.
