Hi guys my name is Brandon, and I am a Peruvian Cook, today I will share with you a recipe for a Deep fry fish kind of like fish nuggets, I come from Lima, the capital of Peru and its located on the coast of the country, in Lima you can find many dishes from all regions of Peru, but thats not all since Lima its on the coast we can find some good quality fresh fish, so many restaurants deep fry them and serve them with sauces like ¨Huancaina¨ sauce or ¨Rocoto¨ sauce , or even with Mayonnaise,I guess thats enough info to encourage you to try this recipe, Are you ready to cook? if so lets start! My social media and the tools I use on this recipe would be at the bottom of the page Deep Fry Fish | Servings 4 Ingredients: Any fish low in fat would be fine, fish should be fresh, if using frozen fish let it defrost first Directions : Blend/process all the dry ingredients and the cilantro if using Tranfer mix to a plate Beat the eggs with the mustard and put it on a plate put the flour on a different plate too Cut your fish in pieces try to cut the pieces from the same size Put your fish into the flour and let the flour cover all your fish Once is all covered in flour , cover your fish with the egg and mustard mix Once all your fish is covered in the previous butter , cover it with the first mix the one you process Set aside your fish but give it a gentle shake to remove the excess of the mix ( this is an important step) Deep fry them in a pan (in medium/high heat), oil has to cover the fish and it should not be super hot or burning , you can try to sumerge an edge of the fish to see of the oil is ready ( if bubbling its ready) 3 min each side should be enough to cook it but this will depend on the fish you are using You can sprinkle some salt on top if you want it extra salty but it should be fine as it is That its guys , a really tasty dish crunchy outside and soft inside , Its a great way of eating fish!

Hello guys! I am glad to share this recipe with you , it is really hot here in Illinois and this recipe is perfect for this kind of weather. If you look for the online definition of Sorbet you can fin that its “a dessert consisting of frozen fruit juice or flavored water and sugar” , its like an home made ice cream , this recipe its lactose free! Links for the ingredients / tools I use on this recipe will be at the bottom of the post Mango Sorbet | Servings: 4 Ingredients : Steps : Peel the mangoes, get pulp and discard the stone, then blend it and pass the pulp through a sift and put into a freezer. Lets make a syrup put water, sugar and salt into a pan bring it to a boil then let it boil for at least 2 min. Mix the mango with the sugar syrup and the lime juice then whisk the egg whites until you get soft peaks, gently fold into the mango mixture. Transfer to a container that can be frozen and let it freeze for at least 5 hours , between hour and hour stir the mango sorbet, this will help to get a creamy texture , do it at least 5 times. That its guys , I thinks this recipe is super tasty and you can do it at home, I made this recipe without an ice cream machine but if you have one use it.
