Cooking method

Cooking time: 1 h

1. Flounder fillet (only it will be needed) should be thoroughly rinsed under running water and wiped dry with paper towels. Then put the fish on a cutting board and cut especially large pieces that are not medium in size, so that they are more evenly fried and not raw inside. Then transfer the pieces of flounder into a deep container and pour them with milk at room temperature. In this case, the milk should cover the entire fish fillet. If this does not happen, then in this case you should either look for a more convenient container or pour more milk. And then leave the fish in the milk for about 10 minutes.

2. In a bowl or any other container, mix wheat and corn flour, add baking powder and a little salt. Mix all dry ingredients thoroughly. Chop the butter into small pieces, put it in a dry mixture and grind it into a slightly greasy crumb.

4. Pour vegetable oil into a deep frying pan with a thick bottom and non-stick coating and heat it. Check the readiness of the frying oil by throwing a piece of bread into it. If it starts to hiss and foam, then you can proceed directly to frying flounder.

5. Flip the fish fillet into a colander to drain the milk. Then roll each piece in the previously prepared dry mixture, covering the fish with it from all sides. Shake off excess breadcrumbs and throw them into boiling vegetable oil. Fry the fish fillet on one side until golden brown for about a couple of minutes. Then turn over to the other side and also fry until golden brown. Place the fried pieces of fish on paper towels folded several times so that excess oil is absorbed into them.

Serve fried flounder in a mixture of flour in hot form, garnished with lemon slices and sprigs of fresh herbs. Baked or boiled potatoes can be served as a side dish.

Bon appetit!
