FOR THE VINAIGRETTE
Pre-heat the grill or barbecue. 1 Rinse the sardines and pat dry. Put a fennel sprig in the stomach cavity of each fish. Grill or barbecue the fish brushed lightly with oil.
2 Season with coarse sea salt as you turn, until cooked through, 3-5 minutes on each side, depending on the size of the fish and strength of the heat.
3 Whisk the vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper in a small pan. Whisk in the olive oil. Stir in the fennel and red pepper. Heat without boiling. Lay the sardines on plates, spoon over the vinaigrette and serve immediately.
