Ingredients

  • 1 4.5-ounce can olive oil-packed sardines
  • 1 lemon, zested and juiced
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon sumac
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly-ground black pepper
  • 1 small shallot, finely chopped
  • 1 small carrot, grated
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley, cilantro, or mint
  • Extra virgin olive oil (optional)
  • Pita chips, to serve

Instructions

  • Mix the base. Drain the oil from the sardine can into a medium bowl. Add the lemon zest, juice, and Dijon mustard. Season with the sumac, coriander, and a big pinch of kosher salt and black pepper (about 1/2 teaspoon each). Whisk to combine.
  • Make the dip. Add the sardines from the can and mash them well. Add the shallot, carrots, and fresh herbs and mix well to combine.
  • Finish and serve. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or sumac, if you need to. If you like, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Serve with pita chips.
