Preheat the oven to 200C. Poke holes into the potatoes using a fork, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Scatter the rosemary leaves evenly across the potatoes. Make sure they are in a single layer on an oven tray/roasting pan and that each one is coated with oil. Roast until crispy and golden - about 30 minutes. Toss the kale in olive oil and also spread out in an even layer on a roasting tray - bake until crispy. About 15 minutes. For the quick pickle - mix all the ingredients and leave to pickle for at least 15 minutes. Mix all the tomato salad ingredients For the sardines - drain the oil and make sure you remove all the bones. Plate on a platter and enjoy!
