Instructions

  1. Make the dough by mixing the flour, salt, baking powder and oil, then add the lukewarm water little by little. Knead for 5 minutes and leave to rest for 15 minutes.
  2. Clean the fresh sardines if using, or drain the tinned ones well.
  3. Cook the sliced onion and pepper with the garlic in olive oil for 8 minutes, then add the diced tomatoes and let them reduce.
  4. Preheat the oven to 230 °C. Roll the dough out very thinly on an oiled tray.
  5. Spread the pepper and tomato filling over the base, then arrange the sardines on top.
  6. Sprinkle with paprika and pepper and drizzle with a little oil.
  7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the dough is golden and crisp.
  8. Serve lukewarm, with a little fresh parsley scattered over the top.

Variations and tips

Tinned version. Tinned sardines work very well and let you prepare the coca in under 30 minutes.
