Fish is an extremely useful, nutritious and delicious food. It is the basis of all healthy diets. It can be prepared in different ways - fried, baked, steamed or in the form of fish soup.
Frying and baking are the most popular ways to cook fish. It is especially delicious fried fish, although frying belongs to unhealthy food treatments. However, properly fried, fish is an indispensable culinary pleasure that we should not deprive ourselves of.
Preparation of individual types of fish for frying
The small fish is fried whole and over high heat, and the large ones are cleaned, cut into pieces and fried on a lower heat so that the heat treatment is even.
The pieces for frying are cut obliquely, at an angle of about 45 degrees, it is not good to be thicker than 3 centimeters.
Before frying, the fish is salted, sprinkled with black pepper and breaded with flour, breadcrumbs or thin dough. There are different types of breading, breading with egg, beer and breadcrumbs is very popular.
Some hosts marinate the fish before frying. This is done by watering the pieces with lemon juice, a little oil, parsley, chopped onion, black pepper and leave in this filling in the refrigerator for 1 hour. When removed from the marinade, the fish is dried, breaded and fried.
The fish will become tasty and tender if soaked for 20-25 minutes in salted milk, then dried and breaded.
Choice of dish and fat for frying
The fish is fried best in a pan with a thick bottom, as it heats evenly and there is no danger of some pieces burning. In order not to burn the fish, the thickness of the breading is also important. The thicker breading protects the tender meat from burning.
Frying fat is most often sunflower oil, as it has no smell and the fish retains the smell of the marinade or breading. However, to be healthier, it is good to fry in olive oil. When frying, turn the pieces only once with a spatula.
Here are some more tips for properly frying fish:
• To remove the strong odor at frying fish, put a potato in the pan, peeled and cut into slices.
• To prevent the fish from falling apart during frying, leave it for 30 minutes in water mixed with vinegar in equal amounts.
• When frying, the pieces of fish will not be deformed if you pre-cut them.
