Ingredients List
200g fresh whitebait (cleaned)
1 tablespoon plain flour
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for frying)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh dill (chopped)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Salt (to taste)
Pepper (to taste)
Lemon slices (for garnish, optional)
Steps
Start by heating a small amount of oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Lightly dust the whitebait with flour, shaking off any excess, and add to the hot oil. Fry until the whitebait is golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
While the whitebait is cooling slightly, prepare the dill mayo. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chopped dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Stir well until the dressing is smooth and creamy.
Once the whitebait has cooled slightly, gently toss it in the dill mayo mixture until fully coated. Be careful not to break the delicate fish.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to let the flavours meld together. Garnish with extra dill or lemon slices if desired. Enjoy!
