The specific fishy taste disappears after cooking. Ready tilapia tastes somewhat like tender crab meat. We suggest repeating two recipes for preparing this fish. Which option do you prefer?
Cooking time – 15 minutes.
Required Products
- tilapia – 8 pcs.;
- white (semi-sweet) wine – 50 ml;
- egg – 2 pcs.;
- wheat flour, corn flour - 1 tbsp. l.;
- spicy aromatic mixture for fish dishes with crab flavor - taste.
Cooking tilapia in batter
1. Lightly pour wine over the tilapia.
2. Cut the tilapia carcass into small pieces.
3. Prepare the batter by combining eggs and a dose of wheat flour.
4. Stir, adding a spicy, aromatic mixture for fish dishes with crab flavor.
5. Dip the fish pieces into the batter and immediately place them in the frying pan (first pour oil into the frying pan and heat it up).
6. The second option for preparing tilapia is also worth trying. We dip the fish pieces not in batter, but first in the egg mixture, beaten with an aromatic spicy mixture. Next, roll thoroughly in corn flour. Let's also put it on the roasting pan.
7. Fry, setting the burner to moderate, until golden brown. Then transfer the fish to a plate with a napkin. Soft paper should absorb the grease. All that remains is to serve the delicious tilapia and try it as soon as possible.
Culinary tips for cooking fish
- Wine can be replaced with lemon or lime juice.
- Fish fries quickly, so don’t leave the pan unattended.
- Do not make the batter too thick, otherwise the taste of the dish will be rough.
- If desired, you can not cut the fish carcass, but fry a whole tilapia fillet.
