Instructions

1. Drain the sardines gently into a fine sieve set over a bowl.
2. Put the flour in one bowl. Whisk the egg with the milk, season with salt and pepper, and put in a second bowl. Put the panko in a third bowl.
3. Heat the virgin olive oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat.
4. While the oil heats, coat each sardine in flour, then egg wash, then panko.
5. When the oil is hot, add the sardines in a single layer, spaced apart. Fry 2 minutes per side, or until golden and crisp.
6. Drain the sardines on paper towels.
7. Whisk the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, grated garlic, lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil together, season with salt and pepper, until creamy.
8. Cut the baguette into 8 cm (3 in) pieces and slice each open lengthwise.
9. Spread the aioli on the bottom and top halves. Add 2 sardines to the bottom half, then 2 tomato slices and chopped lettuce. Serve at once.
