Coley’s Tips for Shallow Frying
Step 1 For snack-able bites, cut fish into 2-3 inch pieces. You can also shallow fry larger strips or fillets.
Step 2 Heat the pan on high and use 1/2 – 1 inch of olive oil.
Step 3 Place the breaded Barramundi pieces gently into the pan, away from your body.
Step 4 Do not overcrowd the pan!
Bonus tip: keep your hands goop-free when breading the barramundi by using one hand to handle dry ingredients (flour, panko) and the other for the egg wash.
