My son doesn’t like to eat fish that have bones. Even the filleted Sardines still have fine bones and he is reluctant to eat them. When he was very young, he got a fish bone stuck in his throat for three days. When it finally came out, we were all shocked at the size of the bone. It must have been painful for him. Anyway, to let him eat nutritious Sardines without worrying about bones, this is one recipe.
