So, do give this recipe a shot.
Ingredients:-
- Oil for deep frying
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/4 cup (60ml) cold water
- Pinch of salt
- 40g plain flour
- 10g corn flour
- 4 fish fillets (I used Dory fish)
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
1. Beat egg, cold water and salt together. Stir flour and corn flour into the liquid, mixing quickly with a fork. It is not necessary for the mixture to be completely smooth.
2. Pat fish dry and deep into batter. Ensure that both sides are dipped.
3. Fry in hot oil until fish turn golden brown. Drain well and serve with fries, lemon wedges and tartar sauce.
Ingredients for Tartar Sauce:-
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon or lime juice
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp finely chopped pickled gherkins (you can get them from supermarkets)
- 1 tbsp finely chopped onion
- 1 tbsp finely chopped parsley
1. Stir all ingredients together and keep refrigerated until ready to use.

See? I told you....it is easy to make. You may even buy fish patties to make fish burger and smear some tartar sauce on it or you may have some fish fingers with some homemade tartar sauce.
Hubby and Caitlin absolutely enjoyed the Fish & Chips and Caitlin was looking for more fish. Hahahhaha....I had to keep her in check before she overfed herself.
Girl, when you use Dory fish, doesn't it like smear all around like very 'san'? I tried pan fried Dory before and even baking them, but I find them very 'san'. Breaks easier, so it's like eating nothing. Care to share some tips?
ReplyDeleteBabe, I'm not too sure of cooking Dory fish with other recipes but for this recipe, I didn't face this problem at all.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm....I guess the batter held it together.
But I remember cooking Dory in aluminium foil before with oyster sauce and had no such problem either.
