1st step

Peel the garlic from the peel and chop in any way. In a small bowl, combine the garlic, soy sauce, s alt, pepper, and lemon juice for the marinade. Beat the resulting mass with a whisk. You should get a stable emulsion. Put the hanos fillet in a bowl and pour over the marinade. Make sure the fish is covered with sauce on all sides. Cover the containercling film or lid, refrigerate. Milkfish will marinate best if you leave it overnight, but you can limit it to a few hours.

2nd step

For frying, use a heavy frying pan with a thick bottom. Heat up the oil in it. Remove the fish from the marinade. Pat lightly with paper towels or towels. Too wet fillets will not allow a crispy crust to form. Once the oil is hot, place the fish pieces in the skillet. Milk fish is fried for 5 minutes on each side. It is best served with a side dish of rice and vegetables.

Tip

If you can't find dairy fish, you can try replacing it with mullet. However, you are likely to lose a bit of flavor, as hanos has a delicate, sweet flavor that sets it apart from other fish.
