Sardine & Sliced Egg Sandwich
Another tasty sardine sandwich recipe. I made these on 11 May 2019, and these are delicious. Links to the Shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Equipment
- Toaster
Ingredients
- 4 slices bread, toasted, wheat would be good
- mayo, as desired
- 1 tin sardines in olive oil, (120 g / 4¼ oz, Ayam or any brand), Shortcut
- 2 hard boiled eggs, sliced, Shortcut
- lettuce leaves, as needed
- red onion, thinly sliced, as needed, think mandolin
- ½ teaspoon lemon juice, or lime juice
Instructions
- Spread some mayo on the toast and add lettuce leaves to two slices of toast.
- Divide the sardines between the two sandwiches and split them, the tin I used had 5 sardines. The bones are are tender, don't worry about those, it's calcium.
- Sprinkle some lemon juice on the sardines, top with some onion slices (which I skipped as had no onion) and top that with the egg slices.
- Top each sandwich with the other slices of toast, cut each sandwich in half. Enjoy.
Notes
Low cost if using homemade sardines. I make sardines using small mackerel which is sold per fish anywhere from 10 to 25 Baht each, so about 29 to 74 cents per sandwich. (I cut each fish into 3 pieces when making sardines.)
If using tinned sardines, figure 1 tin at 59 Baht for 2 sandwiches, this is about 87 cents per sandwich.

Variant: 1. In place of mayo, just drizzle olive oil on each slice of toast.
