Hey Guys! Got some nice small fish today, My favorite size to fry. Do it right and the bones and everything crisp right up! got two 1 pound-ish parrot fish and about 6 or so small reef snapper (yellowtail snapper). Did them up in the CI pan on the grill along with some roasted plantain. Been craving some fried fish for a while... the kind you get from the little stalls at the beach! :heh:
Here's the fish all cleaned up:
I seasoned them just with a bit of EVOO, sea salt, black pepper, garlic pow, onion pow, smoked paprika and some pepper flakes and left them in the fridge for the day.
As of recent... a logwood fire:
Halved a plantain and put them on as I started frying the fish:
I put the fish to drain on the grill when they were just about done and they coasted to doneness and picked up a hint of smoke... :thumb::heh:
***OK GUYS, THIS IS WHERE YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION**...:heh:
This is what EVERY jamaican puts on their fried fish... and there's a reason!!! It's farkin GOOD!!! I bet it'll go damn nice on a PP sandwich!! :shocked:
I chopped up onions, carrot, a bunch of pepper (I used scotchies and anaheims.) and garlic, I had some pickled garlic my mom made me so I used that. I heated up about 2 cups of white cane vinegar with about a TB brown sugar and 1-2 tsp salt and a couple black pepper corns and some whole pimento. As soon as it came to a boil I took it off the fire and poured it over the veggies. You want the veggies to have a little bite. Cool it completely before you use it. And it only gets better as it "ages" :thumb:.
Place on fish and eat! :heh:
Best thing is... I always make a little more than I really need :thumb::heh:
Craving:Satisfied!! :wink:
Thanks for looking guys!
Cheers
