Recipe | Turmeric fried fish

Ingredients (serve 4 to 6):

12 small fishes, heads removed

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon chili flakes

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

1 tablespoon corn starch

3 tablespoons plain flour

Method:

1. Coat the fish with the turmeric and chili powders, flour, corn flour and salt. The best way is to place everything in a zip-lock bag and shake well to coat.

2. Heat up 2 cm oil in a deep sauce pan and fry the fish, about 4 minutes on each side, over medium heat until they are golden and crispy. Remove and drain on kitchen paper.
