A delightful twist on classic fried fish, featuring a crispy sesame-infused coating.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined.
Use cold milk to help the batter adhere better to the fish.
Stir in the sesame seeds to the batter mixture.
Toasting the sesame seeds beforehand enhances their nutty flavor.
In another bowl, mix the flour and salt together.
Sifting the flour ensures a smoother coating.
Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Ensure the oil is hot enough by testing with a small drop of batter.
Dip each fish fillet into the batter, then coat with the flour mixture.
Pat the fish fillets dry before coating to help the batter stick better.
Fry the coated fish fillets in the hot oil until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the oil temperature.
Remove the fried fish and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Serve the crispy fried fish with your favorite sides and enjoy.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice adds a bright, tangy flavor.
