Cook’s Tip: This recipe has been edited including step #5 to gain additional colour and a additional crispy texture.
Leftover Storage: If you've got any leftovers, permit the fish cool a bit, then set up in a shallow glass container with a tight lid. You can refrigerate for 2 to three days, or freeze for as much as one month. My private option isn't to freeze fish as, sometimes, the feel does change.
