For those who are new to cooking, frying fish can be a challenge. The fish often turns out soggy, with a less-than-crispy exterior and an undercooked interior, and the oil tends to splatter. Don’t worry, though! By following these steps shared by our reader, Pham Hieu, you’ll be able to fry fish like a pro and achieve that delicious, crispy texture.
Step 1:
To begin, select the freshest fish possible for the best results. If you have a non-stick pan, even better! For this recipe, we’ll be using a 500g silver carp.
Step 2:
Before frying, ensure the fish is thoroughly dried. Use a paper towel to pat the surface of the fish dry, as this will help minimize oil splatter.
Step 3:
Add a moderate amount of oil to your pan (no need to be generous) along with a pinch of iodized salt. This will help reduce oil splatter. Wait until the oil is nice and hot before carefully placing the fish in the pan. Fry with moderate heat to prevent the fish from burning, sticking to the pan, or ending up with an undercooked center.
Step 4:
Fry the fish until the edges turn golden, then carefully flip it over using a spatula. It’s important to only flip the fish once during the frying process to avoid breaking it apart. Continue frying until the other side is also golden brown.
