Read your fish tacos recipe with interest because I bought all the ingredients to make fish tacos this week. After dipping the fish in batter, it says to assemble the tacos. Is the recipe missing the step where it tells how to fry the fish?
So sorry, if you don't have a deep fryer you can use a pot with canola oil, have the temp about 375, you can test it by putting a piece in and make sure it sizzles. The fish should be cut in bite size pieces, once golden remove from oil and drain on a paper towel. I usually do this step ahead of time and then place all the fish in a casserole dish or pan in a 300 degree oven to stay warm. Have the rest of the ingredients ready so that the tacos can be easily assembled. Hope that helps, let me know how they turn out!
As a professional in the food industry, before I became a mom, I was definitely a "purist". I like to give the example that when I served pate, I made the pate, weighing it down with my tinfoil covered brick! Once I had children, life got much busier. Consequently, I created shortcuts and do ahead tips for my recipes. Although I firmly believe in cooking with all natural ingredients, it doesn't always have to be so time consuming to cook a wonderful meal. Throughout my professional career, I have worked in many places; gourmet take outs, caterers, restaurants, etc., but my passion has always been teaching cooking. I try to make my recipes very "doable" for the average person with lots of shopping tips and from the knowledge I received from catering lots of "do ahead" tips. My passion has always been sharing my knowledge of cooking, and nothing makes me happier then when I hear that a person made the recipes from my classes and that it was a great success. Hope to hear from you!
