Fried Fresh Anchovies [Smelt or Silver Fish]


I do not know the exact name of this fish but it looks like fresh anchovies.  Cost about Ringgit 3.50 per 600 gm.  [Neela has provided the name of these small fishes.  They are called smelt or silver fishes].

Very delicious. After cleaning and cutting, simply coat with some salt, an egg and flour for deep frying, then fry till cooked and crispy.  A little time consuming to clean the fish but worth the trouble.



 Good to serve with Nasi Lemak, Sambal Belacan or plain rice or porridge.
