Step-by-Step Instructions
01
Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan/gas mark 6). Open the sardine cans and drain the olive oil into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
02
Add the thinly sliced sweet potato and fresh thyme leaves to the bowl with the sardine oil. Toss well until every potato slice is thoroughly coated.
03
In a small ovenproof baking dish (approximately 25cm x 15cm), arrange half of the sweet potato slices in an even layer across the bottom.
04
Roughly mash the sardines with a fork and spread them evenly over the first potato layer. Top with the remaining sweet potato slices.
05
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil to retain moisture. Bake for about 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are very tender when pierced with a sharp knife.
06
Remove from the oven and allow the bake to cool completely to room temperature before serving a portion to your dog.
