Crispy Mini Fish Bites 🐟


With 3 kids at home the full day, mama is almost staying in the kitchen and nowhere else! 🙈🤪😝 A challenge to feed them 3 meals and also tea or supper! 😅😅 🤦🏼‍♀️ Before they ask for supper, mama already prepared these finger food for them! Made these mini fish bites using the cream dory fillet bought from SHC groupbuy on Wednesday.

Ingredients:
  • One packet of cream dory fillet (500-600g)
  • 1.5 cup of self-raising flour
  • 1/4 cup of corn flour
  • 1 small beaten egg
  • 1 tbsp of oil
  • 1 tsp of sugar
  • 1 tsp of salt
  • 1 tbsp of shaoxing wine
  • A dash of pepper
  • Iced water (estimated about 1.5 cups)
Method:
  1. Rinsed and pat dry fish. Sliced fish into 1 inch by 1 inch cube size. Marinate with salt, sugar, a dash of pepper and cooking wine. Set aside.
  2. Prepare batter. Mix self-raising flour with corn flour. Add iced water slowly into flour till combined. Add oil, salt and dash of pepper and mix well till batter forms a paste. The consistency should be slightly thick and not watery. You can test if the oil is ready by placing your chopsticks into the oil. 
  3. Heat oil in a pot. Deep fry a few pieces at a time for even cooking and better heat control. Increased heat to do a double-fry in order to make the fish bites crisp. Served hot with chili sauce or mayonnaise.
