Print Recipe

A simple and delicious recipe for crispy small fish fry that highlights the freshness of small fish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 500 grams of small fish (such as sardines or anchovies)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Clean and prepare the small fish by rinsing them under cold water and pat drying with a paper towel.
  2. In a bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, turmeric, cumin, and chili powder.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg.
  4. Dip each fish into the buttermilk mixture, then coat with the flour mixture, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs.
  5. Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  6. Once the oil is hot, add the coated fish and fry until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  7. Remove the fish from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Notes

This recipe requires carefully handling the small fish to avoid breaking them. Also, ensure the oil is not too hot to prevent burning the outer layer before the inside is fully cooked.
