Fish

French Fries

Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Fish

    In a bowl, combine the whiting fillets with salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and garlic powder. Mix well to ensure the fillets are evenly coated. Allow marinating for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a splash of oil. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Whiting

    In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if necessary. Place the marinated whiting fillets in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat.

French Fries Preparation

  1. 4

    Cut the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips to create fries.

  2. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 6

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the potato strips to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 4-6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 7

    Season the Fries

    While the fries are still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plating the Dish

    On a serving plate, arrange the cooked whiting fillets. Top with the cooked shrimp and garnish with chopped parsley and lemon wedges. Serve alongside the crispy French fries.
