Canned sardines don't have to be sh*t!

- Canned sardines are such a cheap versatile source of food. Usually though -if you are me at least - they are eaten straight out of the can like a heathen in the middle of the night when the hunger kicks in. This time though, I wanted to create a little recipe that utilises the humble canned sardine in a way that is quick, yet tasty, and yet also...easy.
#sardinesrecipe #sardines #budgetmeals
To make my spaghetti and sardines you will need:
►About 80g of spaghetti (or as much as you want really)
►1 x 125g can of sardines in oil
►1/2 a diced red chilli
►Juice of 1/2 lemon + rind of whole lemon
►1/4 of a small red onion
►1 garlic clove
►1 small handful of fresh parsley or basil
►Salt & pepper
►A small knob of butter

You are not a good organiser at cooking any sort of food and you also have a potty mouth less language I'm concentrate on what you are doing
@@JuneRoberts-h3b Organiser? This isn't the ritz June, this is my home and I'm cooking how most normal people cook in their home kitchens. Who pissed on your chips June? Or do you need a nap? I think that's what you need, a nap. Then hopefully when you wake up from your nap, you might not be such an opinionated insufferable bore
We enjoy Adams potty mouth very much thenk you
June, if yo don’t have anything nice to say, keep your gob shut & scroll on by…… 😤
Thank you for the tasty looking recipe as I am trying to embrace sardines into my menu.
Adam, you’re the best part of the weekend. Always happy to see you. Thanks for a good idea for a different pasta dish. Have a good week, mate!
You're too kind! Thank you my friend
Highly economical & nutritious. Looks yummy… again👍🏻
Nice Adam! 🍜
& love your comedy clips in between lol!
Haha cheers mate
Love the way you present your videos, very down to earth & entertaining, thank you
Thank you buddy
Love the bottle of Puglian EV Olive Oil a la LIDL. It is magnificent!, and my go to
I love tinned fish also. I'm glad you don't edit out the eff ups 😂😂 ❤ the toast crumbs adds to the flavour 😂
Exactly Linda EXACTLY! 🤣
Love it!! Just had tinned tuna on a jacket spud with lashings of mayo and black pepper. Will be trying your recipe when I am next feeling like fish 😛
Love tinned tuna. I am uncouth though and will eat it right out of the tin with just some salt and vinegar 🤣
Another great one, for cheap also ❤ 😀
Thank you! Cheers mate
Tin of sardines, pile of grated cheese, mix together, pile on toast and put under the grill. Yum!
Fit!
I made this tonight and it worked really well. Thanks for taking the time to create this video.
Nice! Glad you enjoyed it
Another super quick, super TASTY meal! Im going to make it tomorrow (its a grab whatever leftovers and make do tonight coz a migraine wiped me out this morning) Your videos always cheer me up, thank you x 😀
2/3's of sod all!!! 😆😆😆
I hope the migraine gets better soon! They are not fun x
I'll never be able to use a knob of butter again in pasta without thinking, "Make love to it".
🤣🤣🤣🤣
That looks really, really good. I do love sardines, but to put it in with pasta? Heck YES!! I will definitely give this a try. Thank you so much for the video and recipe! You always make my day when I get to watch you do your 'kitchen magic!' Thank you again! Please take care and stay cool! 😊💖🙏🏻
Thanks Lisa! Tinned fish is my new favourite thing. I've some amazing ones recently. One with lemon, dill and pepper. They were awesome
Great video, Adam! 👍 My favourite is tinned mackerel in tomato sauce. I love it in the summer with a nice slice of brown bread with some good quality butter on it. Simple yet delicious! 🙂
Sounds great!
Sardines are awesome!
Love them!
I don't eat food, I've only ever had food one time when I was 6 months old. It was a spoonful of peanut butter, my body then turned the peanut butter into dookie and ever since my body just remetabolizes that one poopdook which makes more poopdook for my bod to metabolmalize and then make more poopies. It's an endless cycle of suffering and agony. I love it. I cherish it. I own it. I work in retail. I am the true alpha male.
Nice one mate, another great recipe 👍
Cheers Les!
Love sardines so I think I'll be trying this jish looked great
Hope you enjoy!
Love sardines and anchovies. Yummy 😋
Actually looks delicious! Great video. Can't wait to try it!
My student days staple.
Love it.
Yum!!! I love sardines 💜
I loved tinned fish, could live off it. That spaghetti was blatantly enough for 3 people but I'd have grabbed even more for just me 🤣
Thanks for another gorgeous and affordable dinner.
Thankfully I ate the lot 🤣
Yum! I have loads of tinned sardines in the pantry which I keep buying and forgetting about😆. Looks like sardines and pasta tonight then! Thanks Adam 👍
Enjoy!
Brilliant, I do like sardines, thanks Adam
No worries pal
Always have a variety of them in the cupboard,they last for ages and most are good on toast,especially the ones in a tomato sauce ! 😋
Love the ones in tomato sauce. I usually eat the straight out the tin with a bit of salt and vinegar like a heathen 🤣
@@Adam_Garratt 🤣I might try that !
Just found your channel. Loved it! Your humor is my type, and your cooking style is what I appreciate. I am a new subscriber.
@@patriotdefender808 welcome to the gutter my friend 😂
@ I’m right there with you, my brother, in the gutter! lol
I love sardines on toast. I always get them in olive oil not tomato. Great breakfast. 😊
It's an old fashioned thing I think needs a comeback.
Love sardines in tomatoes sauce spread over toast add pepper and viniger put under GRILL so tasty and cheap
Thankyou,,,,That sounds nice,,,,
Love your honesty
Thanks
I get tinned sardines quite often at the foodbank. Usually pick up some reduced mash at the supermarket for like 60p and fry up a huge fishcake add whatever seasoning, onion, garlic, spring onion, herbs. I've made things like this before many times but i usually use noodles ... they're just easier. I tend to boil a kettle and cook noodles and pasta in a container in the microwave now.
@@MichaelTheophilus906 Yeah i'm not mad about sardines
The good people at Morrisons are knocking these out at 55p a can and with your expertise at cooking these slippery fellas Adam that is a superb meal for sure
Thanks Mike!
@@Adam_Garratt Welcome Buddy
tasty healthy and inexpensive meal cheers Adam 👍
Thanks Paul
Just found your channel. Loving it, down to earth, you are as you see you. A lot of my other food channels have gone to blogging, please dont change| Looking forward to all your recipes old and new. I do a lot of slow cooker and air frying, so looking for recipes which I can adapt. Keep on cooking, making mistakes and owning up to them. Love it.
Welcome to the channel!
I love it. Good oil and cheap comparatively.
What once was cheap has gone up in price of tined fish in Australia .
Your recipe 👍🇦🇺☺
I add tomato jar or i do a white sauce. It works both ways.
Everything just keeps going up doesn't it. Its a sad indictment of how awful things are right now. Hopefully better days ahead x
That looked tasty and economical. I can see me doing this but with flaked Salmon. I hope your going to give us a tour of your Garden when it`s all growing well. Slugs and Snails are thriving this wet/cool Summer but the new slug pellets are organic rated so they don`t poison the other wildlife like the old type used to.
I'm hoping too yes, everything is in the ground now so just need some good weather for the tomatoes. Purple sprouting broccoli is starting to sprout now I've noticed
Watching this whilst cooking your chilli con carne video from 7 years ago. Going to try this for lunch this week. Working from home I need variety, and this looks fab
Yeah looks real tasty.
Cheers mate
That looks good, am trying to eat more fish so I will give it a go. Good to see a recipe for one 😍
Thank you! That was so much fun!!
A trick I've learnt in France is to dissolve a beef or chicken bouillon cube in the boiling water before adding the pasta. It takes on the flavour. Great with Bolognese etc and also instead of potatoes in a regular meat and veg meal.
Best on buttered toast
Thank you, brother. I will try this
Tinned fish with noodles. Yum. I used to do mackerel, especially those ones with the chilli oil. So quick and easy.
Two thirds of sod all!! 😂😂 I do love you Adam 😂 great jish ❤
Haha thanks lovely x
Love your knife board in the back. Seems to make it easy to choose your knife when you can see it. And Thanks for sharing.
@@janetshaffer423 I love those knives. They were expensive but worth it
Looks amazing as always Adam 👍
Cheers Jim
@@Adam_Garratt I'm making some beef stroganoff right now 🎊
Whenever I'm making rice I always make a couple extra servings to freeze. It's then a quick meal to microwave the rice and mix in a tin of fish in a flavoured sauce.
Love it!
thanks
No problem
Have you ever made stargazy pie Adam, I love it, I prefer mine with a buttery mash potato top rather than a pastry top.
I haven't made it myself, but it's a cornish dish and if it's cornish I automatically trust it.
You must be a mind reader Kenneth
Absolutely love tinned sardines and mackerel, cheers Adam.
Thanks mate. What plane Is that in your pf pic? F-15?
@@Adam_Garratt Yup, F-15E shot in the Mach Loop
Drunk cooking to your videos make my Scottish blood happy. Cheers
I do a similar version Adam but use cheap curry packet noodles with peas!
I love me some cheap packet noodles. Great when you're struggling. I add veggies, shredded chicken, hot sauce and a poached or fried egg
That is such idea Pete G and so very delicious too
Love a tin of sardines, bet this is gonna be a belter of a recipe 👍
It was delish 😋
What a lovely and relatively healthy meal which probably costs pence. Store cupboard meal. I love sardines and pasta always got them in the cupboard. Just use what you have to hand to make a nutritious tasty meal in minutes. You can't beat it. I know what i will be eating tonight after an evening on the beer. Sardines a'la Koka spicy noodles delicious.
Absolutely mate, and you can use whatever you have in with this recipe.
Absolutely love this mate, and I reckon if you gave everything a mash with a bit more butter it'd make an excellent toast topper if you didn't have pasta in.
Ah yes toast toppers! I used to love the Heinz ones
Excellent Adam, I love sardines and mackerel in tins and usually in tomato sauce (herrings in). I usually have them a couple of times a week but on top of some fried rice or noodles with lots of spicy chillies. Here in Thailand they are dead cheap and come in all sorts of sauces and flavours, I just love them so must be a throwback to my navy days. Extremely good for you as well, keeps the old joints supple. Cheers ⚓
Thank you for watching mate
Love sardines ..quick question Adam, are you still able to get pilchards in tomato sauce over in the UK ?...I'm thinking they would go very well in your pasta recipe ..really enjoyed the video you make me smile
Absolutely we can. All the supermarkets sell pilchards. Fun fact is sardines and pilchards are the same fish, just the smaller ones are sardines, and larger ones are called pilchards
@@Adam_Garratt I never knew that..thank you for that fun fact, it goes to show you are never too old to learn ..Glenrick pilchards use to be a favourite of mine as a child
never had bad can of sardines but i have had bad tuna and it was delicious!
One of my favourite snacks is tinned mackerel in tomato sauce on sesame seed ryvita nom nom x
Nice!
When boiling the pasta, after it comes to a rolling boil, add the salt now, place your pasta in, stir a bit..and place a long wooden spoon across the top edge of the pot…The wooden spoon will HALT boil-overs.
I made this and it was friggin delicious! 'Cos I had some asparagus, it went in, along with a splash of Noily Pratt. Obviously not necessary, but they worked great. Keep up making these great vids.
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it mate
made this today was banging
What is 2/3s of sod all in metric ;)
🏴❤️🏴 definitely trying this one, change from on toast 🏴❤️🏴
YUM 😋
I love them in spicy tomato sauce, lovely!☺❤
So good!
Love tined fish but I prefer mu oyster fresh. That looks really good gonna try that but I'm gonna put it on a nice thick wedge of garlic sourdough
Kippered snacks 👍🏼
😋
I paid good money for exactly this in Portugal. Nice, very nice. Will make with my grandson next weekend. Subscribing was an easy decision 😊
I need to eat more fish. Tinned Sardines in tomato sauce in Abundance where I live,..... Don't like Tinned Sardines in tomato sauce . Would Love a Recipe. Love your Content.
Nice recipe Adam - thanks for this one. When did you melt the plug socket surround behind the hob 😳😂?
🤣 well.....I had all 4 hobs on at once when cooking a big dinner and well...it just happened. I put it down to very poor landlord design!
Love sardines on toast salt pepper and vinegar yum!
Same 😋
I love tinned mackerel in olive oil or Asda do a nice one in a smokey barbecue sauce, either way this recipe is great Adam
I'll have to pop down to Asda. I've become quite obsessed with trying new ones
@@Adam_Garratt Asda have such a great choice of tinned sardines and mackerel, I occasionally push the boat out ( no pun intended lol ) and get the Asda extra special ones.
dose it matter if you us sardine in tomato sauce
Nah, use what you have my friend
Pilchards ? when I was a kid mum would take a tin of Glenryk pilchards (about 410 g) tip them in a basin and mash them up with a little Sarsons and a good shake of white pepper then spread it on hot buttered toast 👍
Try adding some green olives .. sardines vera cruz
On the subject of tinned fish , this time of year i do love a tuna pasta bake and I normally have most of the ingredients in stock anyway and it tastes even better cold the next day either that or I'm weird 😆😆😆
Love a tuna pasta bake. I need to get one up on the channel!
@@Adam_Garratt I love it to I need to practice more as mine always turn out too dry
I so wish that I could eat fish again.
I had some 'bad' fish at school and haven't been able to eat it since. It was several decades before I could even walk down fish row in Leeds Market.
A few years ago I was eating my meal on a flight, and unknown to me, it included fish. I recognised it immediately but no reaction! I finished it off thinking I had grown out of it.
Unfortunately, when I tried it again on firm ground it was service as usual!
So I am now at the point where I can eat fish at 30,000 feet, but not in the ground!
Just goes to show how the flavour/taste profile changes when flying at altitude. I know that it is fish, but apparently, my body does not!
P.S. I bet you never thought that you would hear this from me, but you don't put a lid on boiling pasta!
I'm a bit like that with mussels. I love them but my body does not! 🤣👀
Thumbs Up
this one reminds me of a take on a sardine dish my mum did, tin of sardines tomato sauce (had to be in tomato lol) pasta, but make the pasta like a carbonara but instead of using the bacon, the tinned sardines replaces it. I'll have to give this one a go! and its funny you don't like mussels I used to love having tinned muscles on crackers.
Well the funny thing is with mussels is I do like them, but unfortunately my body does not and they come out again 🤣
Sardines with chopped onions , capsicum , on rice is awesome
I just throw them on toast, maybe with some mustard. Tasty little sandwich.
How nice to get home from work and see your video Adam...albeit only 23 hours later LOL...but my son & I love sardines so I will be making this....and you are so funny so thanks for the laughs :) also did you happen to make that video on the pros of MSG? If so I apologise for not seeing it
Hiya Wendy. I haven't made it yet, it's in the pipeline though.
@@Adam_Garratt Thank you can't wait :)
They don't have to be, but they are!!
🤣
Add some capers to take this up a notch.
What about the innards -guts and excrement?
I like the sardines in olive oil from Lidl simply fried up with the oil from the tin.
Then I suffer the wrath of her indoors for stinking the house out.😉
An ex of mine used to love smoked salmon. She'd stink the house out then burp in my face! 🤣
@@Adam_Garratt The one that got away eh? Sounds like a keeper.
@@ThiefOfNavarreOr a "kipper"
Canned sardines are a Gift from God!
Bloody love tinned fish!
I'm getting quite obsessed 🤣
okay great to have with pasta and flavour enhancers to taste. Hum helpful with using up some leftover pasta noodles even a boxed cheesy variety. Waste not want not is my mantra in this economy.
Adding the butter in at the end allows it to make an emulsion with the pasta water, making the sauce unctuous. I use tinned pilchards in tomato sauce as a base for the sauce, no onions as they have no place in my kitchen, but using any peppers, tomatoes or whatever I happen to have lying around. I have not used lemon, but will give it a try next time. Unctuous, isn't that a satisfying word.
That's the one, unctuous 😋
@@Adam_Garratt how many times can you use the word in your videos. Perhaps a game of catchphrase bingo, "knob of butter", "unctuous", "who doesn't love a nice big juicy sausage", "I'm not going to be too precious with it", "bitesize chunks", "no need to be too fussy", "it needs using up so I'm going to use that", "smoosch up", "not pretentious", "that is banging", "I'm going to shoot off" bingo!
Wooden spoon over your pan hun and it won’t boil over a little tip Kyra told me of all people lol x
Thanks! Tell Kyra I said thanks an hi too! 🤣
Food is insanely cheap in the UK compared to the US.
"We just haunch over the sink and eat it straight out of the tin. " .... wha? Who does this!?!
Special people 😂
Well done mate,thoroughly enjoyable and funny,very tasty too… if like me you like fish trapped in a tin and need different ways to release the lovely little critters this is an option for the nights your girlfriend isn’t coming round.
Tin of Sardines, Pile of grated cheese cheese, mix together, pile on toast, heat till melted!
Sometimes I think I watch British cooking channels just to hear the host say "knob of butter". Is there a metric conversion for a "knob"?
and BTW, little known fact (but true), sardines packed in water are great as a fertilizer. I use them in containers, were I can get them deep enough nobody digs them up, and they are a slow release fertilizer for the whole season. Oil packed is no good. I haven't tried one packed in tomato sauce yet.
Not really haha, a knob Is just a knob. I'd say roughly the size of half an egg.
Fabulous! The other three-quarters of a cubic metre of spaghetti you cooked wasn't really necessary though!
I was having an off day measurements wise 🤣
