Instructions

Fritters

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sardines, eggs, garlic, parsley, breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.
  2. Pat the mixture into small balls and set aside.

Sauce

  1. In a small bowl blend together the Sriracha sauce, soy sauce, and fresh lime juice.
  2. Heat about an inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet - until sizzling hot. Fry the sardine balls in the oil for 3-4 minutes until golden brown, turning occasionally with tongs.
  3. Place the fritters on a platter with a paper towel underneath to absorb the excess oil.
  4. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves and place on a serving dish. Place the fritters on top, drizzling with the Sriracha-soy sauce and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
