These crispy fish bites, a party favorite in Russian cuisine, are made by coating cubed white fish in flour, egg, and breadcrumbs, then air-frying them with a little oil. Served with sour cream and dill, they get crispy without deep-frying.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the fish

3 min

Cut the white fish fillet into 3 cm cubes and season with salt and black pepper.

2

Coat the fish

4 min

Coat the cubes first in flour, then in beaten egg, and finally in breadcrumbs.

3

Cook in the air fryer

6 min

Cook in a preheated air fryer at 200°C / 390°F for 6 minutes, turning 1 time, until crisp and golden. If you do not have an air fryer, bake the fish on an oven rack in a preheated 200°C / 390°F oven for 10 minutes.

4

Serve

1 min

Serve the hot fish bites with sour cream and lemon, sprinkled with dill.

Reminder

Keep your hands dry while coating the fish cubes; otherwise, the breadcrumbs will stick to your fingers and be wasted. Do not overfill the air fryer basket; the bites will not crisp if they touch. Contains fish, wheat (gluten), eggs, and dairy (sour cream).

6 dakika airfryer önerisi bende yetmedi, balıklar ortadan hafif çiğ kaldığı için 9 dakikaya çıkarmak zorunda kaldım; sepeti biraz fazla doldurmuş olabilirim ama süre benim cihazım için düşük görünüyor.

Galeta unu bitmişti, onun yerine ince çekilmiş mısır gevreği kullandım; hem daha çıtır hem de biraz tatlımsı bir tat kattı, ailem normal versiyondan daha çok beğendi.
