SIMPLY SARDINE PATE
Who would have thought that sardines could be so addictive. I have to confess that when my friend served this at her party I ate half of the pate before anyone else found it.

SARDINE PATE
For those who like sardines, a flavoursome paté really different from other patés you are probably more familiar with. And it's quick and easy to make, low in calories and full of all those good-for-you oils we all should be eating more of. I've always enjoyed sardines on toast as a simple breakfast or snack, but until a few years ago it had never occurred to me that some people evidently loathe the smell of sardines. Then, on two occasions - forever etched in my memory - when I had sardines on crispbreads for lunch, a co-worker asked if I minded if she opened the window. She didn't wait for a reply: by the time the question was out, the window was open. Wide open! With THAT experience in mind, this is obviously a paté for those who LOVE sardines: NOT for those who feel compelled to open windows when in the presence of a sardine!

Steps:
- Drain the sardines and place them in a bowl with the lemon rind and lemon juice and mash with a fork until the sardine mixture is a smooth consistency.
- Before adding the yoghurt and cottage cheese to the sardines, examine both to determine whether they tend to be watery. (Yoghurts and cottage cheese differ so much in this respect). If necessary, first drain the yoghurt and/or cottage cheese in a sieve lined with a filter coffee liner; then mix the yoghurt and cottage cheese with the sardines; and fold in the cucumber and basil.
- Season to taste with the garlic salt and the freshly ground black pepper.
- Place the sardine paté in 4 ramekins, garnish with the cucumber twists and parsley sprigs.
- Serve with crispbreads, pita bread or crusty rolls.
- Chef's Notes: An obvious variation would be to make just ONE dish of the paté - and serve it only to those who like sardines! Garlic lovers could, of course, use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder. And if you don't like basil, use chives or spring onions. A quick and easy way to include additional flavours is, of course, to use a cottage cheese with chives or garden vegetables.
Tips:
- Choose the right sardines: Opt for fresh or canned sardines packed in olive oil or water. Avoid sardines packed in tomato sauce or other strong flavors.
- Remove the bones: If using fresh sardines, remove the bones by running your finger down the center of the fish and gently pulling them out. You can also use a pair of tweezers to remove the bones.
- Mash the sardines: Use a fork or potato masher to mash the sardines until they are smooth and creamy. You can also use a food processor for a finer texture.
- Add flavorings: Season the sardine pâté with your favorite herbs, spices, and seasonings. Some popular options include lemon juice, Dijon mustard, capers, and shallots.
- Chill the pâté: Refrigerate the sardine pâté for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the pâté to firm up.
Conclusion:
Sardine pâté is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It can be served as an appetizer on crackers or bread, or used as a sandwich spread. Sardine pâté is also a great addition to salads, pasta dishes, and omelets. With its rich flavor and nutritional value, sardine pâté is a healthy and delicious option for any occasion.
