Help on gardies
Submitted by fab on Mon, 2008-06-16 20:52
Does anyone know a recipe for these suckers???
Been fishing lately, and have thrown a few gardies back.
I don't know of any recipies for them.
Any ideas would be great...
Cheers
Fab

Add a bit of Lemon!
Plus some rock salt and pepper. Put them on the barby with abit of Butter and presto. All done! Cook till crispy outside, eat them whole. Bones and all!
Cheers lads,

Once gutted open the flaps
Once gutted open the flaps of flesh and use a stubbie to roll the fish flat, this breaks the tiny backbones which can be easily removed and ends up with a butteflied fillet, albeit with tiny bones, but these are so fine they can be eaten as Darda said.

Raw gardies
Scale, gut, chop off fins if ya want, and cut whole fish body into cutlets and put in jar of vinegar and leave in fridge for 24 to 36 hours. Eat straight from the jar - bones disolve - Yumm
