sardine escabeche
Escabeche comes from the Mediteranean where fish is flash fried then pickled. We have taken the fried part out for a much healthier dish. The sweet and sharp flavours of this dish, inspired by flavours from north Africa, is perfectly balanced and is so simple to prepare in less than 10 minutes.
