Fried anchovies - Boquerones fritos

Anchovy is common as tapa, as well as marinated in vinegar and fried well. The fish should be small, like sardines in a can of sardines. I guess you could get hold of them in a fish shop?

After an inquiry by Britt-Marie in Sundbyberg here are some recipes. Since I'm not sure if she means marinated or fried anchovies, then both. The first one was marinated anchovies , almost like our Swedish pickled herring. Welcome to the next recipe for fried anchovies - Boquerones fritos, ¡Qué aproveche! - Bon appetit!
