How to prepare Fried Fish with Garlic and Chili Sauce

• 1

  Prepare the fish

  For 2 fish, after buying them, you need to remove the guts and gills. To eliminate the fishy smell, soak the fish in 100ml of vinegar for about 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water and let it drain.

  Put the fish in a bowl, marinate with 1/2 spoon of salt and let it sit for about 15 minutes for the fish to absorb the seasoning.

  How to clean fish without fishy smell:

  • Method 1: Soak the cleaned fish in rice water for 15 minutes, then take it out, rinse with water and let it drain.
  • Method 2: The fish will no longer have a fishy smell if you rub salt thoroughly on both the inside and outside of the fish for 5 minutes, then rinse in clean water and let it drain!
