Easy! Kabayaki-Style Sardines

A long time ago the supermarket used to sell these sardines cheaply and I'd make this recipe. But recently they don't sell them as much so it's been a long time since I've made this.
Don't use herring sardines. They're easier to eat and taste better when covered in lots of sauce.
Since the portions of the sauce ingredients are all the same, you can easily adjust the amount of sauce needed. Recipe by Sanmarukohamu

Kabayaki Style Mackerel Kabayaki Style Mackerel
I had some mackerel I'd fished myself, but I wanted to eat it with a rich sauce and make a drinking snack, rather than grilling it...so I made this kabayaki-style dish.Use a generous amount of oil at Step 1.In order to save a little washing up time, I've used a teaspoon to measure everything rather than a teaspoon and a tablespoon.This recipe used to say 2 servings, but I thought maybe half a mackerel is too little for 2 people...so I changed it to 1 serving! For 1 serving. Recipe by milestone cookpad.japan -
Sardines Simmered in Soy Sauce Sardines Simmered in Soy Sauce
Sardines were on sale at the supermarket, so I made one of my husband's favorites - sardines simmered in soy sauce.Place the sardines in one layer in the pan, without overlapping them.I used a frying pan with a depth of 24 cm this time. *Basic tip: for blue fish, start with cold water. This way the skin doesn't tear. (For white fish, boil the liquid first)In Step 5,if you leave some of the simmering liquid, the flavor will be less strong. If you boil it down until the liquid is gone, the flavor will be stronger. Recipe by MORIYABAR cookpad.japan -

Osechi (New Year's Dish) Made Easy! Tazukuri (Candied Dry Sardines) Osechi (New Year's Dish) Made Easy! Tazukuri (Candied Dry Sardines)
These are delicious!My daughters can't put their chopsticks down, since they make a perfect complement to sake, neither can I!One serving for our new year's osechi is not enough, so I always make these three times!The key to this recipe is the thickness of the sauce. If it's too watery, the sardines won't become crispy enough, but if it's too thick, it won't coat the sardines. It should be just thick enough that you can see the bottom of the pan when you scrape it. For 4 to 5 servings. Recipe by Cake to pan no sensei cookpad.japan -

Delicious Nanban Pickled Small Sardines Delicious Nanban Pickled Small Sardines
I had a lot of small sardines left over, so I thought to pickle them in black vinegar and preserve them. If you have any pickling vinegar left over, put it to good use as a dressing, in ankake, or various other uses!Use the same amounts of green pepper, paprika, and carrot, but use a little more onion. In Step 3 add the vegetables to the pickling vinegar while it's still hot. Be sure to adjust the sourness in Step 4. Add the fried sardines to the pickling vinegar while still hot. These are the main points. For 4 servings. Recipe by Shiotokoshou cookpad.japan
