Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Fish fillets (such as Tilapia or Snapper)
- 60 grams Coconut flour
- 100 ml Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 whole Lime
- 2 whole Eggs
Instructions
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.
In a shallow bowl, combine coconut flour, salt, black pepper, turmeric powder, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well to make a seasoned flour coating.
In another bowl, beat the eggs.
Squeeze the juice of one lime over the fish fillets and let them marinate for about 5 minutes.
Heat coconut oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Ensure enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan generously.
Dip each fish fillet first into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off, and then dredge them in the coconut flour mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the coated fish fillets in the pan. Avoid overcrowding; cook in batches if necessary.
Fry the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. The fish should be cooked through and flake easily with a fork.
Remove the fish fillets from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the Keto Ikan Goreng immediately, garnished with lime wedges or your choice of sides, such as a simple green salad or keto-friendly vegetables.
