A Fishy Tale
Fried whitebait consumed at a tapas bar in Madrid, Spain.I just love fried fish, little fish, to be precise. The best ones were my family's specialty--small fish lightly marinated with turmeric powder, deep-fried to crispy goodness, with a vinegar-soy dipping sauce loaded with chopped bird's eye chilies. Heavenly! Labels: Eating Light, Spain, Spanish Food |








Sorry for the lack of updates this week. I am still in Tokyo.

post a commenttry stir frying them with some sliced chilli, onion and a lil sugar. Better still if u can get day old YAU CHAR KUEH ( sliced thinly and deep fried ) and sauteed them all together . . .
DELISH !
.
Yumz..the smaller they are, the sweeter the meat!
.
I don't like big fish, I love small fish too, they are crispy and can eat the whole thing, LOL.
.
They do look heavenly!
.
I could eat loads of this! Simple but tasty finger food!
.
I had this in spain for breakfast actually - almost every day I was there! Just amazing aren't they!
.
Gimme a beer and keep 'em coming!
.
Your family's favorite recipe sounds like the cha ca we had in Hanoi -- I think I still have some turmeric stains on the clothes I was wearing the night we ventured to Cha Ca La Vong, but it was worth every bit of spilled sauce to have fish fried that way.
.
unless it has edible bones or no bones..if not a BIG no!
.
delicious! what tapa bar did you eat these in? just curious, i was recently in madrid.
.
I love this kind of fish! Just a sqeeze of lemon and they're perfect.
.
hi,
can u brought along some to me when u have ur home trip back to Penang?
they look delicious....
.
Oh, wow! I like the sound and looks of this! Heavenly is right. ;-)

these are most likely BOQUERONES FRITOS... they're fresh little white anchovies fried in a batter. Really delicious with just a squirt of lemon juice... not to be confused with the preserved really salty anchovies people are most familiar with...
.
I don't mind fried small fish...like the silverfish!
.
I snack on fried little fish like french fries!
.
I like fish but everyone knows that I do not eat fried stuff.
.
Is it this fish that Chinese restaurants usually do the 椒盐 style?
.
I usually marinate this in lemon then dust with cornflower mixed with a dash of pepper and salt - deep fried then eaten less than a minute after. Delicious!
