Cooking Instructions
- 1
I used Twinstripe Fusilier (round ‘Dalagang Bukid’) fish, quite easy to clean and it’s pin bones can get crunchy after frying so you can eat it too.
- 2
Season well with garlic salt and onion powder.
- 3
Tip: oil in pan needs to be really hot before you put it in. (Medium heat)
And a non-stick pan does not work, use the metal stuff.Caution: Ready your pan cover, as it will splash, especially if the fish is wet.
Better option- is to use AF so no hot oil splashes hehe (see my AF recipe for a bigger fish, just lessen cooking time)
- 4
Leave it be in hot oil until you can see the edges browning, then you can flip.
Caution: hot oil splashes
Tip: lower heat when doing this. Or remove the pan from heat for a moment.
- 5
Once browned (not burnt) and looking crunchy, remove from heat and serve with dipping sauce of soy and kalamansi/lemon OR soy sauce and vinegar with sliced chilies.
