You will need:

• tin of sardines in spring water
• tablespoon tomato puree
• 2 or 3 tablespoons of very finely chopped or minced onion
• 1 or 2 tablespoons of finely chopped parsley
• half a tablespoon of tomato sauce
• half a tablespoon of olive oil, unless you’re John Paul Getty in which case go for it and use more
• squeeze of lemon juice
• half a teaspoon of chilli powder
• salt and pepper

Strain the sardines and combine all the ingredients. You could whizz it up in a blender but I just mashed it with a fork in a bowl and spread it on crusty bread with cucumber. Delicious!
