While doing groceries in hypermarket, out of sudden, he asked, “Aren’t we supposed to cook Fish & Chips for dinner? You’ve promised me last 2 weeks.” Oops, he still remembers that. Moral value of the story – Don’t simply promise something if you don’t take it serious.
Ok, I said. And we bought Dory fish fillet and potato wedges from the frozen food department. The meal is easy to cook, we just used one hour to prepare and cook. Just deep fry the potato wedges till golden brown, drain from oil and absorb extra oil with kitchen towel. You don’t want it to be oily!
I prefer baked fish than deep frying it, so we prepare 2 versions. For the deep fry one, season the fish fillet with salt, ground black pepper and paprika powder. Dip into egg, coat it with mixture of flour and baking soda, and then fry it. It looked good the moment it is cooked, but after a while, sigh, we just can’t get the crispy texture like how restaurants out there do.
For the baked fish, wrap the fish loosely with aluminium foil. Sprinkle lemon juice, salt, ground black pepper, basil and paprika on the fish. Feel free to add any spices and seasoning you like. Then, bake the fish in oven for 20 mins. Eww! I forgot to add lemon juice, and it turned out to be too dry. Luckily, the texture of the fillet is still tender.
Never mind, home-cooked food always tastes better no matter how. Just need some improvements.
