I love a great sauteed piece of fish. I eat out a lot to say the least. I want to make the same dishes. When I try to recreate the crust on the fish it will come out way under cooked or over cooked. What am I doing wrong?
Cindy
Dear Cindy,
The first place to start is what type of fish are you using? If you use a thin piece of like flounder, the best way to create a crust is to coat the fish with seasoned flour, corn starch, or corn flour. Start sauteing in hot oil and cook the fish on one side for 90% of the way. You will need to lower the heat a little so you do not burn the fish. If you are using a thick piece of fish like halibut, just season the fish and sear it in HOT oil. Then do the same. To make it easier you can sear the fish until the crust forms and then flip it over and place it in a 350 degree F oven for about 10 minutes. For an even tastier crust you can shred some potatoes, season and add a little flour and create a crust the same way. It does sound easier said then done, but after a few times you will be a pro.
If you have any other questions on this, please let us know.
Sincerely,
