Deep Fried Barramundi with Soy Sauce
Deep Fried Barramundi with Soy Sauce Dressing is a delicious dish made with crispy barramundi fish that has been deep-fried to perfection. The fish is then served with a delectable soy sauce dressing, which adds a savory and tangy flavor to the dish.
Ingredients
- 2 barramundi fillets
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- Celery for garnish
- 1 green onion chopped for garnish (optional)
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Start by preparing the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil. Set it aside to let the flavors meld.
- Pat dry the barramundi fillets with a paper towel, and season them with salt and pepper.
- In a shallow dish, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Gradually add cold water while whisking until a smooth batter forms.
- Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan or deep fryer to about 350°F (175°C).
- Dip each barramundi fillet into the batter, ensuring it's coated evenly.
- Gently place the battered fillets into the hot oil and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden and crispy. Make sure to fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Once the fillets are cooked, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Serve the deep-fried barramundi fillets with the prepared soy sauce dressing drizzled on top.
- Garnish with chopped celery, green onions or a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added flavor and visual appeal if desired
