"Crispy fish cucumber salad. Very spicy!! , Cucumber Cucumber Salad!! " - Sarin
Crispy Fish
2 lb sliced white meat fish - haddock, rockfish, or cod,
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup rice flour
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 lime, juiced
1/4 c or more canola oil for frying
Combine the cornstarch, rice flour, granulated garlic, ground ginger, salt and pepper in a large baking dish. Lightly dredge the fish all over with the seasoned flour. Shake off any excess flour.
Carefully place the fish into the hot oil so it is almost completely submerged. Fry the fish until deep golden and very crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. As it cooks, use a large metal spoon or ladle to carefully pour hot oil over any exposed part of the fish to ensure it cooks evenly. Carefully remove the fish from the oil and place on a wire rack to drain briefly. Season immediately with salt and lime juice.
