Looks Delicious Sister. Thank you for sharing this video!
Thank you so much 🙂
That looks so delicious! It is impossible to find whole fish like that here in the midwest. Thanks for bringing back memories from living near the Chesapeake Bay!
Hi Rivet Gardener, You're welcome. Tilapia is a freshwater fish, if you can't get the whole fish just a fillet can be good as well but cooking time may be slightly different. The Chesapeake Bay sounds like a beautiful memory😁😁. Thank you for the comment.
Midwest , I'm thinking catfish

Hi lifechanging, you're welcome 😀 Happy cooking!
wow sarap ng fried fish :-) thumbs up on this recipe...keep posting video :-) new subscriber sa iyong channel :-)
Hi Mary Official Mix Channel, thank you for the sub 😄 I'm happy that you like this recipe 😄
I had this for the first time at a Mexican restaurant and I was amazed how good it was. The bones are super tricky though because they are easy to choke on and it got annoying prying out like 5 bones every bite
Hi Submersed24, thank you for sharing 😀 Yes, we have to be careful when eating fish as their bones are really sharp and easy to choke on. I hope the taste was worth carefully removing the bones though 😀
Bones are good 4 us
Very nice
Hi munyaradzi nyenya, thank you for the comment 😄
The fish look delicious but im going to need more seasoning than what you used...but im from the south...what do I know😜😁😊
Hi Taye Janae, thank you for the comment 😃 Yes, more seasonings can be added as desired - I usually put less seasonings as I prefer it that way. Cooking at home allows us to modify the amounts as much as we like 😄
Good video. Please let us know about when to put temprature on high and when to low during this .
Hi Sufi Sayyad. for deep fry fish we usually use a medium high heat to cook it throughout and also to make sure that the oil must be really hot before putting the fish in. If oil is not hot, the fish will absorb the oil and it will result in oil fish 😀😀
Very nice.,but incase if I don't have tapioca flour, which other flour I can use. Thanks
Hi Asiya K. Corn starch (just a little) will be good, else you can do without flour too. Thanks for the comment.
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit Thanks. Sawadeeka
Im vegetarian since i was born but i gotta admit this looks very good
HI G3NTL3M4N6, thank you for the comment 😄 This fried fish is very delicious - so crispy on the outside and soft & juicy on the inside 😋
You never ate meat?
@@Worshipinstrumentals1 Nope, I just tried meat for the first time 2 months ago, but it was just chicken and pepperoni, I'm looking forward to that fish haha
@@charmingman20 your definitely missing out! I had it yesterday but I bought it thought I’d save some money if I can cook it. Lol and it is delicious
👍👌
Hi Ram's Adventerous Vlog, thank you for the comment 😀
❤️
Hi Danny Keo, 😄
drizzle some Vietnamese nuoc cham on top with some rice on the side 🤤🤤🤤 mmmmmmmmmm yummy
Hi F.B.I, thank you for the comment 😄 That sounds like a great idea! 😄
❤🎉🎉❤❤
Please let me know where you got the lid screen. Thank you. Lisa.
Hi LisainNewarkNJ, I got mine from the market a long time ago. I also noticed that it's sold online in Malaysia (hcws.link/oilsplashguard) and overseas (amzn.to/3jQuT6Z). Hope it helps 😀
Where is pan/lid from?
Hi instead of tapioca flour , can I use corn flour ?
Hi Thirunavukarasu Illamurugan, thank you for the comment 😄 Yes, you can use corn flour as well, it will work the same. Hope it helps, and happy cooking 😄
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit Thank you for your reply . Your cook shows are so well presented and you have a lovely voice .
❤😊.
May I know where to buy the cover netting?
Hi yy. It can be found in most shops selling cooking utensils or from the online shop hcws.link/oilsplashguard
Thank you for sharing. May I know what kind of fish is it?
Hi khin ma. You are welcome. This is Red Tilapia fish. Thank you for the question 😀
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit thanks!
Hi, when you say turn it on the heat again. Meaning you off it before you close the lid? Thanks
Hi Tracy Ooi, thank you for the comment 😀 I set the induction stove's timer for 8 minutes, so after 8 minutes, it will turn off the heat on its own. Ideally, the heat should be turned on throughout frying the fish. Hope it helps 😀
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit Hey thank you for replying me! I am cooking my fish now and your video really helps! Thanks for the guidance. 🤗
You're welcome 😀 I'm very happy to hear that 😀 I'm sure it came out amazingly delicious! Hope you've enjoyed it 😀
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit Hey! Thanks to your video, i have successfully fried a crispy fish! Appreciate your teaching! 💕
That's awesome! Thank you for sharing 😀 Happy to hear that it was successful 😀
What kind of oil to fry the fish!
Hi 2jw, thank you for the comment 😀 You can use any odorless cooking oil as preferred. Hope it helps 😀
Hello, Thanks and got questions.
how many litre oil we need? What type oil? And, it gonna be waste after we cooked once by it?
Hi Teddy Afro, thank you for the question 😄 When deep frying fish, we want to submerge the fish completely, as much as possible. If it's not possible, it's okay for a little of the fish surface to not be submerged. The amount of oil needed depends on the size of the pan and the fish. For me in this video, I used 1.5 litres of oil.
As for the oil wastage, yes unfortunately. I use the mid-range/quality oil for deep frying, while reserving my top-range/ high quality oil for other types of dishes. Although one should never reuse the oil for frying more than once, I have reused the oil for a maximum of 2 times, if the oil's colour did not drastically change and there isn't a lot of residue in the oil. Hope it helps 😄
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit What kind of oil?
The first part of frying the fish is with the heat turned off..?
Hi Tiong Jin Lim, Yes, I set the timing for 8 minutes, so when the timing goes off I need to restart it again to continue frying the fish on the other side. Thanks for asking
what sort of oil??
Hi brett clark. Just a normal cooking oil. 😀😀
Oil temperature should be moderate or smoking hot ?
Hi Robert Thai, thank you for the question 😄 The oil should be hotter than moderate, but not as hot as smoking. If the oil is smoking hot, reduce the heat until it is no longer smoking but above moderate. Hope it helps 😄
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit oh Thank you, I ever fry fish with moderate heat but it takes too long time likes 30 minutes on 1st side and 2nd about 10 minutes , problem is the fish wasn't crispy but cooked and the skin remains soft..
Hi Robert Thai, thank you for the reply 😄 Usually, I preheat my oil on medium-high with a (thick walled) stainless steel pan for 10 minutes (on induction stove) before putting in the fish. If a gas stove is used, the oil will get hotter quicker as it gives out more heat than induction stove. Coating the fish with flour also helps to absorb the excess moisture and gives a crispy texture too. I hope it helps 😄
Just buy the no stick pan its will help alot
Hi Mayala Mungeya Esperance, thank you for the suggestion 😄 Using the non-stick pan to deep fry the fish will prevent the fish from sticking to the pan.
However, through my experience, I found that deep frying with non-stick pan spoils the non-stick coating easily due to the high heat. So I use my non-stick pans for stir fry dishes instead, like fried rice, noodles and vegetables 😄
Wow never seen fish seasoned only with salt
Hi jv, thank you for the comment 😄 While it is up to the individual, I find fresh fish is best seasoned with only salt as its freshness is very lovely 😄 Hope it helps 😄
Hi, can I save 5 mins of cooking flipping to the opposite side if I started cooking with more oil immersing the fish fully?
@Ann-ig6hj. Yes, you can flip just once if the fish is submerge in the oil. Thank you for the question 😃
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit Oops...maybe my English was wrong. What I meant was if i follow your first 8 mins of frying that fish, but the difference being my oil level was much more than yours, so much oil that my fish is fully covered in the oil, does that mean I don't have to do flipping at all(hence saving 5 mins of cooking time) ?
@Ann-ig6hj, I understand 😀 For me, even when the fish is fully submerged in the oil, I would still flip it once to ensure that the top half is as evenly cooked as the bottom half.
This is because the bottom half of the fish cooks at a faster rate than the top half (since the bottom half is closer to the heat source), even when the cooking oil fully covers it.
Since it is fully submerged, once flipped, I would continue cooking the fish about half the time it takes to cook the bottom part. Hope it helps 😀
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit Oh....yes indeed indeed indeed...the surface of fish facing the
bottom of frying pan should be much hotter due to being nearer to the fire, how ignorant of me not being thoughtful of that fact. I was too immersed in thinking how to save time...and energy ... due to inflation gas and electricity prices has gone higher and higher. Thank you for the enlightenment, you're the expert.
cooked it bite too much love!
Hi Kharajan mohammad, thank you for the feedback 😀
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit You are welcome love.
What kind of fish ?
HI Aiai Hernando, thank you for the question 😄 This is tilapia fish - which is a freshwater fish 😄
Why sometimes my fish is sticky and I cannot flip it to the side😢
Hi Yew Chan, thank you for the question 😀 From my personal experience, I find that the fish get stuck to the pan because the oil is not hot enough when the fish enters the pan, or because the fish was stirred before it can fully cook on one side.
I find that the fish will separate from the bottom of the pan once cooked as long as it was not stirred before and the oil is super hot. If it's still stuck although the fish is already crispy, I would put the spatula to slowly help the fish separate itself from the pan. After that, the fish usually would separate on its own. I hope it helps 😀
What kind of fish is that
Hi Dumpling Soup, it's tilapia 😀
gd
Hi janat nats. Thank you 😀
BTW, what fish is this?❤
Hi yy. This is Tilapia
nice. tapioca flour. i will try this today. Just don't eat Tilapia its not a good fish.
Hi Jiro 808, thank you for trying this recipe 😄 Please let me know how it turns out 😄
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit my neighbor gave me some medium size akule. I butterflied them and removed the Big Mid bone. OMG sooooooo good and crispy. I will try when I have get bigger fishes. Thank you for the video
Thank you so much for letting me know how it turn out. It sounds so delicious. I am glad you are happy with the recipe. :)
Me wuv you cwispy uh fish!!!
Hi Blanche Deveraux, thank you for the comment 😄 I don't understand it though.
Not a good cook though, but my boss told me to cook fried fish. Gooodluck to me 🤣🤦🏽♀️
Hi Mary Joy Gonzales, thank you for trying this recipe 😀 I'm sure you can do it well 😀 Happy cooking!
Fish name please....
Hi rajiv kumar, thank you for the question😃 I used a red tilapia for deep frying 😃
Thank you... Love from india
The only thing.. in wish you told me what type of fish was that. I can not seem to pick the right frying fish type.
Hi Princess Jada. It's a Red Tilapia, a fresh water fish. If you can't find it at your local market can try the Red Snapper. Thanks for the comment.
Don't cover the pan when you fry fish..you need to allowed the water to evaporate,,,
Hi Terry Assary, thank you for the comment 😀 Yes, I agree that the water should be allowed to evaporate. The cover that I'm using is a netting that prevents oil from splashing outside the pan, while allowing water to evaporate. Here's the link to what it looks like: hcws.link/oilsplashguard Hope it helps 😀
you needed a bigger pot
Hi Joyce Marilyn, thanks for the comment 😄 Yes, I wish I had a bigger wok to fry this fish 😄
You didn’t clean fish well, Shown inside some red and black
Hi Ali Ahmed, thank you for the feedback 😀 Yes, there are still some blood veins in the fish. I did not find it necessary to remove the traces of blood in between the bones as I am okay with just having the stomach and fish innards removed. Please feel free to clean the fish as you prefer before cooking it. Hope it helps 😀
Your tilapia is a little bit overcooked for me
Hi Theodore Twombly. Thank you for the comment. I like it a bit crispy on the outside. Anyway cooking time can be reduced as preferred. Happy New Year!
This is NOT Deep Frying!
Hi amusicunlimited. Thank you for the comment. Frying the fish with a lot of oil is a common term used as "deep-fry" here in South East Asian countries.
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit I went to pacific market yesterday bought some fish because I always wanted to try my fish like this so here I am stealing your recipe 😅
Wasted oil
@agapelalengmawia3884. Thank you for the feedback. 😀
Terrible! over cooked and soaked in oil so bad for your health! looks like some dead fish sitting in the sun for a whole week!
@joelmaske2493. Thank you for feedback. 😀
