Hazırlanışı
Adım adım
- 1
Rinse the cleaned anchovies under cold water and pat them very dry with paper towels.
Yaklaşık 3 dk.
Aşçının notu: Ensure the fish are completely dry to achieve a crispier fry and prevent oil splattering.
- 2
In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and black pepper.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
- 3
Dredge each anchovy in the seasoned flour, ensuring it is lightly and evenly coated.
Yaklaşık 5 dk.
Aşçının notu: Shake off any excess flour to avoid a thick, doughy coating.
- 4
Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan or deep skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches about 175°C (350°F).
Yaklaşık 3 dk.
Aşçının notu: Use a kitchen thermometer for accuracy, or test by dropping a pinch of flour; it should sizzle immediately.
- 5
Carefully place the floured anchovies into the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
Aşçının notu: Overcrowding will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy fish.
- 6
Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Yaklaşık 4 dk.
- 7
Remove the fried anchovies with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
- 8
Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
