I’m a HUGE fan of seafood so I’ve been on the lookout for one that was yummy and easy to make (and also inexpensive). Naturally when I saw Maangchi’s latest recipe I had to try it for myself and share. So I’ll be inviting a friend over to try it with me this week. In the meantime I thought I’d share Maangchi’s video recipe and photos until I have some of my own to share.
Ingredients (for 2 servings):
- Frozen pollock fillet
- Salt
- Ground black pepper
- Flour
- Eggs
- Canola oil (or vegetable oil)
Instructions:
- Take 1 frozen pollock fillet (about 200 grams’ worth) out of the package, rinse it in cold water, and set aside for 20 minutes.
- Slice it into pieces at a 45 degree angle. You should get 8-9 pieces that are ⅛ inch thick x 2 inches x 3 inches.
- Sprinkle a few pinches of salt and a bit of ground black pepper over the slices.
- Place ⅓ cup of flour in a bowl. Add the fish slices and mix by hand to coat them with flour.
- Beat 2 eggs in a small bowl with a few pinches of salt.
- Heat up a non-stick pan over medium high heat.
- Add 1-2 tbs canola oil to the pan. Dip each pollock slice in the beaten egg and place it onto the heated pan.
- Lower the heat and cook for 1 minute. turn it over with a spatula and cook 1 more minute. Add more oil if needed, and put more egg mixture on top of each slice if you want to make it yellower.
- Serve hot, warm, or cool.
To make a fast dipping sauce, mix 1 tbs of soy sauce and 1/2 tbs vinegar in a bowl
