Stuffed vegetables and leaf rolls
In this Aegean-style dish, cleaned sardines are wrapped in grape leaves and grilled. Unlike the classic rice- or meat-filled stuffed grape leaves, the fish cooks in its own oils. The leaves protect the fish and add a mildly tangy flavor.
Rub the cleaned sardines with the lemon juice, olive oil, thyme, and salt. Let them marinate for 15 minutes.
Wrap each sardine tightly in a grape leaf, folding the ends inward.
Grill the wrapped sardines for 5 minutes on each side, turning them once. As the leaves char slightly, the fish inside steams until cooked.
Keep the leaves damp before placing the sardines on the grill; dry leaves can catch fire quickly. Allergen: contains fish.
