Crispy Red Fish and Sauce
- To ensure the fish is evenly coated and well-protected from sticking, sprinkle seasonings before the dredge.
- Let the fish rest in the seasoned dredge for about 15 to 30 minutes to allow the seasonings to adhere better, resulting in a tastier fish.
- Ensure the oil temperature is at the right temperature before frying to achieve the crispy texture. The ideal temperature is around 350°F to 375°F (175°C to 190°C) for the pan-fried method in a skillet or sauté pan.
- Avoid overcrowding the pan when frying to prevent the oil temperature from dropping too drastically, resulting in oily fish.
- Gently move the fish around the pan while frying, but avoid flipping it too often to prevent the crispy skin from disintegrating.
- For a healthier alternative, bake the fish in the air fryer or on a sheet pan in the stove instead of deep-fritters.
- To make the remoulade, use fresh herbs like parsley, dill, and capers to create a flavorful and aromatic spread.
- Adjust the amount of mayonnaise and Greek yogurt in the remoulade to achieve the desired texture and tanginess.
- Serve the crispy red fish with a side of tangy remoulade, tartar remoulade, or your favorite dipping sauces to enhance its flavors.
