Ginisang Sardinas na may Sayote

Ginisang Sardinas na may Sayote is simply sautéed sardines with chayote. I love it with garlic fried rice and with scrambled egg on the side.

Ingredients

  • Cooking oil
  • 4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 onion sliced
  • 1 tomato sliced
  • ¾ cup sliced sayote
  • 2 cans sardines in tomato sauce
  • Water
  • Misua (Chinese vermicelli) I used about 40 g
  • Spring onions sliced
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a pan over medium-high heat, add cooking oil. Saute garlic until fragrant. Add onion and tomato; cook until soft.
  2. Add sliced sayote and water (enough to cook the sayote). Cover and let the sayote cook for 5-7 minutes (depending on the size of your sayote). You may need to check from time to time to make you have enough water to cook the sayote. Add enough water if needed.
  3. When the sayote is cooked, add the canned sardines. Lower the heat at this point. Add enough water to the empty canned sardines and pour it into the pan. Let this simmer for a few minues.
  4. Add misua and let simmer until misua is cooked. Add sliced pring onions. Season with salt & pepper.

Recipe Notes

  • You can add more veggies if you want like carrots, potatoes, zucchini or spinach.
  • I used 2 canned sardines in tomato sauce (1 spicy & 1 regular).
