This is a traditional Cornish supper dish of fresh large sardines (pilchards) cooked together with potatoes in a cream base.

Ingredients:

6 fresh pilchards (large sardines)
6 medium potatoes, scrubbed and cubed
300ml single cream (about)
salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste

Method:

Gut, scale and clean the fish then pat dry. Arrange the fish and potatoes together in a saucepan and season to taste with salt and black pepper.

Pour over the cream and bring to a simmer. Continue simmering for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the pilchards are cooked through.

Serve hot, accompanied by boiled greens.
