How to Fry Flying Fish
- 1). Season fish fillets with 1 teaspoon of salt and lime juice. Place the fish in a dish and set it aside for 15 minutes.
- 2). Drain the fish and pat it dry using paper towels. In a small mixing bowl, mix the onion, chives, garlic, marjoram (or oregano) and hot sauce. Mix well and then rub it on the fillets, making sure it covers every part of the fish.
- 3). Beat the egg lightly in a shallow bowl. In another small bowl, mix together ½ teaspoon of salt and black pepper, flour and cayenne pepper. Dip the fillets first in the egg, then the flour mixture, followed by the corn flake crumbs.
- 4). Heat up your skillet with the oil; medium heat will do. Fry the fillets for three minutes on each side or until the fish is golden brown. Place the cooked fish in a warm place to maintain heat while cooking the remaining fillets so they do not lose their crispness.
- 5). Garnish with lime wedges on the side. You may also choose to serve the fried fish with tartar sauce on the side or a choice of hot sauces.
