I have figured out the best way to make fried fish (or Chicken)
Lets discuss the deep fryer
I use a Japanese Deep Fry Pot, like is shown here
It has curved sides to prevent splashing of oil, an attached lid to contain wet food sputters, a thermometer and the underside of the lid is a place to put food to drain oil.
Buy one here Japanese Deep Fryer
Next, lets discuss your dredging station
I bought a stainless steel Japanese dredging station (here) I only used 2 of the 3 trays.Lets discuss what I have in the trays.
This is the controversial part
On the left I have a plain flour and water slurry and on the right I have the Fish Fry Flour
This is the gamechanger.
Forget the old ways of dredging first in flour, then egg, then seasoned flour.
The flour/water slurry adheres better and keeps the seasoned flour on the food better.
You can still marinate in things, but drop the first flour and egg step
So what I did was thaw a package of Aldi Frozen Flounder, and dredge my way.
Bring the oil up to 300, turn heat to medium and fry till they are golden.
DONE!
