Sesame Crusted Fish

Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 1 1/2 lbs fish fillets, cut into nuggets
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 cup flour, for dredging
  • 2 egg whites, beaten
  • 4 tablespoons sesame seeds (not toasted... raw)
  • 4 tablespoons black sesame seeds (not toasted... raw)
  • oil, for deep frying

Recipe

  • 1 marinate fish in the soy and sesame oil for 15 minutes.
  • 2 drain and dust the fish in flour.
  • 3 dip into the egg and then roll in the sesame seeds.
  • 4 deep fry the pieces in 360 degree oil for 4 or 5 minutes. no longer -- the sesame seeds scorch easily and will be bitter.
  • 5 make a simple dipping sauce with some soy sauce diluted with about a 50/50 ratio of water and some fresh grated ginger. delicious!
  • 6 you may need to cook this in two batches so that the temperature of the oil doesn't plummet. the oil needs to maintain a constant 360 temperature if possible.
