Sardine & sweet potato bake for dogs

• sardines in olive oil↗2 x 120g cans
• sweet potato↗1 small

  about 250g, scrubbed and thinly sliced with a mandoline or a sharp knife

• fresh thyme leaves↗½ tsp

Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Drain the oil from the sardines into a bowl. Add the sweet potato slices and thyme, and toss until well coated.

2. 2

   Line an ovenproof dish about 25cm x 15cm with half the sweet potato slices. Mash the sardines roughly with a fork and spread them over the sweet potato, then top with the remaining slices. Cover tightly with foil and bake until the potatoes are very tender when pierced with a sharp knife – it will take about 45 mins. Leave to cool a little before serving to your dog.
