Roasted sardines are a traditional dish in Portugal, especially during the festivals of popular saints. Originally from Sardinia, these sardines were essential for feeding rural families. Normally, they are seasoned with coarse salt, placing them on a double grill over the coals, without flame, roasting over low heat, normally accompanied by roasted peppers and boiled potatoes. They should be enjoyed by placing them on top of a thick slice of bread, allowing the bread to absorb the flavor and natural fat of the sardines.
