Earlier, I've posted this Sardine Fried Rice but that version was more like mine using flaked sardines. This version is of my hubby's where the sardines were mashed up finely before mixing into the rice. I liked my sardine chunky but hubby preferred his all mashed up.
Just like normal fried rice, it's rather easy peasy. First, remove the bones and innards from the canned sardines in tomato sauce before mashing them up finely. Set aside. Fry some chopped garlic in some oil till fragrant. Add in the peas (I've used the frozen ones, defrosted of course) and cubed carrots. Sprinkle in some salt to taste (use just a little bit cos the sardines are tasty enough) and stir. Pour in day-old rice and stir quickly coating them with oil. Next, add in the mashed sardines and mix thoroughly. Once they are evenly mixed up, dish up and serve hot.
If you're not eating this immediately, you can keep the rice warm in a rice cooker under "Keep Warm" setting.
Note: Hubby did not cook this!
