Walleye in batter

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to fry walleye in batter? Prepare all the necessary products. It is best to take the fish chilled. It can be both pike perch steaks and pike perch fillets. If you have frozen fish, then it is necessary to defrost it correctly: after the freezer, place it in the refrigerator for 8 hours and only then completely defrost it at a higher temperature.

2. Step 2:

   

   Wash the fish well, remove the visible large bones and dry them. Cut into medium-sized pieces.

3. Step 3:

   

   Wash the egg well - it must be done, because the eggshell contains a lot of bacteria. Beat the egg into a bowl, add a little salt and stir with a fork. If you wish, you can add some of your favorite herbs to the egg in fresh form: perhaps chopped dill or green onions, or maybe a crushed garlic clove.

4. Step 4:

   

   Sift the flour onto a separate plate. I advise you to always sift the iuka - during this process it is saturated with oxygen and the batter will turn out to be more airy. Add salt to the flour and mix. Here you can add to it some seasonings in dried form: ground hot pepper or paprika, thyme or Provencal herbs. Speaking of flour, it can be ordinary wheat. But rice flour is also a good choice for cooking fish dishes - the dish will turn out very origi

5. Step 5:

   

   Roll each piece of fish well in the flour mixture.

7. Step 6:

   

   Then dip well into the egg mass.

8. Step 7:

   

   And once again roll in flour from all sides.

9. Step 8:

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. It can be any vegetable: from sunflower to olive. But if you are going to fry something, and even to a crisp, then the oil must be refined so as not to burn in the pan. Lay out the pieces of fish, fry over low heat for about 8-10 minutes. Do not make a big fire - the batter will turn brown, and the fish will remain raw.

10. Step 9:

    

    Then carefully flip the pieces of fish and fry on the other side for the same amount of time. You may have to cover the pan with a lid, so that the fish is fried for sure.

11. Step 10:

    

    Serve fish with rice, potatoes or with vegetables and vegetable salads. Enjoy your meal!
