Pulse coriander leaves and stalks in a food processor to a coarse paste.

Add garlic, spices, and chilli and pulse again.

Mix in olive oil, salt, pepper, and lemon juice until the consistency resembles mayonnaise.

Spread the paste on two sardine fillets and top with the remaining fillets and salt.

Preheat the grill to a high temperature.

Fry the sardine sandwiches in an ovenproof pan with oil for 1 to 2 minutes.

Place the pan under the grill and cook until the skin is crisp and fish is cooked.
