Preliminary processing of dried fish
At this step, if you prefer a softer texture, you can rinse the dried fish in cold or warm water and let it drain for about 15 minutes before frying.

Frying the dried fish
Place a pan on the stove, add 5 tablespoons of cooking oil into the pan and heat over high heat until the oil starts to bubble, then add the dried fish and immediately reduce the heat to low.
During the frying process, turn the fish regularly to ensure it cooks evenly and does not burn. Fry for about 10 minutes until the fish is fully cooked and golden brown on both sides, then turn off the stove and serve on a plate for enjoyment.
Tip: To drain the oil from the fish after frying, you should line the plate with paper towels or place the fish in a draining rack before serving it on the plate! -
