Preparation
1 Coat the sardines with flour and some salt. Get rid of the excess flour.
2 Put a frying pan with olive oil on medium heat. Fry the onion for 3-4 minutes until softened and add the raisins.
3 Add the pine nuts and stir well. After 2 minutes, pour in the white wine vinegar. Add the rosemary and let simmer for 15 minutes on low heat.
4 Put another frying pan with peanut oil on medium-high heat. Fry the sardines for 2 minutes on both sides and drain on kitchen paper.
5 Put the sardines on a plate and cover with the sweet and sour mixture. Let the dish cool down to room temperature before you serve it.
