Sardine Pasta

I like the idea of garlic and oil pastas because its simple yet tasty. I added sardines on it to make it different... okay, that's a lie, to be honest, I tried cooking oil and garlic for a sauce, but it didn't turned out the way I like it, it's weird, it tasted like oil, I haven't perfected it yet, someday, I will. So for now, there are sardines on my pasta, and guess what, it's nice after all. It gave the pasta a wonderful, flavourful taste of the sea, though I know some people are not a fan of sardines because of the over-powering fishy taste, that is why, it's a good idea to put lemon juice to counter balance the fishiness.

Ingredients:

500 gm Pasta
1/2 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
4 cans of sardines in oil
1/2 cup of presered anchovies
10 garlic, chopped
salt and pepper
lemon juice
3/4 grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Directions:

Boil the pasta as usual, with 2 tsp of salt or so. And at a separate pan, sautee garlic at extra virgin olive oil. Then add the 1/2 cup preserved anchovies plus 4 sardines in oil, add salt and pepper to taste. Squeeze lemon on the sauce. And add the sauce to the pasta and add the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano... Take a picture before you eat. Bon Appetit Mes Amis : )
