Brilio.net - Seasoning a frying pan is a step that many people often take to ensure that the surface of the pan does not stick easily when used, especially when frying fish. This process involves heating the pan with oil until a protective layer forms that prevents food from sticking. A pan that is not seasoned properly tends to make fish stick, thus damaging the shape and texture of the fried fish, and making the cooking process less efficient.
Frying fish requires special attention because this food has a flesh that is easily broken and the skin can stick to the surface of the pan. Seasoning the pan helps create a smooth, non-stick surface, so that the fish can be fried to perfect results, with crispy skin and intact flesh.
However, it is undeniable that for some people, seasoning the pan tends to be troublesome, especially if they are in a hurry when cooking. Therefore, many people then use other alternatives to prevent the pan from sticking when used to fry fish. An Instagram user @ryzal1987 is one of them. Through one of the videos uploaded, the netizen admitted to having his own trick when frying fish so that it does not stick and the oil easily explodes.
After further investigation, the Instagram user used 2 additional kitchen ingredients. As reported by BrilioFood from the Instagram account @ryzal1987 on Friday (13/9), the kitchen ingredients in question are corn flour and salt. In addition to making the frying process safer, these two ingredients can also make the fish crispier and tastier.

The first thing to do is to wash the fish that is going to be fried, then cut the meat into pieces. Then pour enough oil into the pan. Because the size of the fish is quite large, Instagram user @ryzal1987 uses a lot of oil so that the fish can be submerged and cooked perfectly.

After pouring, add cornstarch and salt to taste into the oil. Then stir until the two ingredients are evenly mixed. If so, wait until the oil is really hot.

Then, put in the fish that has been washed clean. Then fry until cooked while turning it over. Because it has been given flour and salt, the frying process becomes easier and does not stick. Now, if the surface of the fish is crispy and cooked, drain it with a strainer. The results of fish fried in this way will remain intact and beautiful when served.
