In Bangalore, all fish vendors sell sardines, but only a few give it cleaned. Cleaning sardines is a time consuming task and requires patience. I strong smell of sardine can stink your hand and even your clothes. Always use apron while cleaning sardine and after cleaning wash your hands in lime juice or with Kadala Mavu.
If you're living in an apt surrounded by veg folks, then strong smell of sardine fry can make vegies go mad with you. Watch out when you fry sardines, they have a bad reputation for its stink.
