Step-by-step Guide
Preparation
- Carefully remove all the bones and skin from the cod. Cut the cod into cubes about 4 cm wide so they cook evenly.
- In a bowl, thoroughly combine 150 g of flour, 7 g of instant yeast and a pinch of salt so the dry ingredients are evenly mixed.
- In another bowl, beat one whole egg with one tablespoon of honey and 125 ml of water for about 2 minutes, until smooth and foamy.
- Slowly pour the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Dip each cod cube in the prepared batter, making sure it is completely covered with an even coating.
- In a separate container, prepare honey water by mixing one tablespoon of honey with 250 ml of water. Reserve it for the end.
- Heat plenty of oil in a small frying pan to 190ºC; it should smoke slightly. Fry the battered cod cubes for 3-4 minutes, until golden and crisp.
- Once cooked, drain the cod cubes on absorbent paper to remove excess oil.
- Arrange a base of dressed escarole on each plate and place the battered cod cubes attractively on top.
- Finally, use a silicone brush to coat the cod cubes with the reserved honey water, giving them a final sweet touch.
