Notes

  • If the sauce is drying out before the vegetables are tender, add more water or tomato sauce for a heartier flavor.
  • To keep the fish intact, add when the vegetables are fully cooked and do not over-stir.
  • If using the spicy canned sardines variety, decrease or omit the chili peppers.
