Rub the sardines with the coarse salt and leave to stand at room temperature for 30-60 minutes. Shake the sardines to remove any excess salt and cook over hot coals for 5 minutes per side. Serve the sardines with a lemon half and a tablespoon of butter.

The skin should pull off easily from the sardines once you have grilled them.
