Cooking tips
- Avoid using flour or tempura batter, as they result in a hard texture. Always use potato starch for a chewy texture and better sauce adhesion.
- To prevent oil splatter during frying, ensure the fish is thoroughly dried—especially inside and out—using kitchen towels after washing.
- Double-frying the cod in hot oil after initial moisture removal ensures a crisp exterior and tender, juicy interior without sogginess.
Recommended for
- Those who dislike the soft, mushy texture of steamed or braised fish and prefer something crunchy.
- People looking for a sweet-and-spicy dish like chicken gwanjeong that works well as a child’s side dish or adult’s drinking snack.
- Anyone wanting to master a perfectly crispy, non-fishy, chewy fish fritter with a satisfyingly sticky sauce.
