CousCous with Sardine Recipe
CousCous with Sardine Recipe.
Sardines reminds me of one type of fish we used to have when I was little. In my language we call it “ikan pindang”. The only different is that we don’t cook it with tomato sauce. Pindang is just a type of cooking. It’s like pickle and then steam it. And couscous is reminds me of “nasi jagung” or corn dish (we use it as substitute to rice).
