Useful advice
Before dipping the fish in batter, roll it in flour. A batter on a piece of fish will hold on better.
When frying fish, splashes of oil stain the wall and kitchen furniture. To avoid this, use a special spray net when cooking fish. It is a flat cover with a handle, which has a mesh instead of glass or metal. When frying, air enters the fish, a crisp is obtained. But all the drops of fat remain on the inside of the lid, which is very easy to wash after cooking the fish.
