Oven-baked sardine tray — sardines are among the tastiest small fish, very nutritious, and are seasonal.

1 kg sardines, cleaned and washed with water, lemon and salt

1 chopped onion

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup lemon juice

1/4 cup water

1 tsp hot chili powder

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp fish seasoning

1/2 tsp cumin (whole or ground)

1/2 tsp seven-spice blend

1/2 tsp black pepper

Cherry tomatoes — optional

In a bowl, mix the chopped onion, oil, lemon juice, salt and spices.

Season the sardines with this mixture and let them soak for about 1 hour.

After an hour or longer, place the sardines in the oven tray with the cherry tomatoes and cover the tray with aluminum foil.

Set the oven to top and bottom heat and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) for about 40 minutes.

Remove the aluminum foil and brown the sardines on top for about 10 minutes, or until nicely browned, then serve hot.
