Why does this recipe call for frying it first then cooking it?
Wouldn’t 25 minutes in the oven be enough time to cook it through (maybe even too much)?
Is it a flavoring thing? Texture?
Thank you!
For me, it has to do with texture. But if you want to do it in the oven, then try it. As for how much time to cook it in the oven, since oven temperatures vary, be sure to watch it carefully since fish can overcook easily. Good luck. Zipporah Malka
This was incredible! We did salmon and didn’t fry it…such flavor…yum!!!!
Thank you!
