How to prepare Mixed Fried Fish and Vegetables
To prepare the mixed fried fish and vegetables, first make the sauce: chop the capers 1, then in a bowl add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and chopped parsley 3.
Add the chopped capers 4 and season with salt and pepper 5. Mix well and place the sauce in the fridge 6.
Wash all the vegetables. Cut the bell pepper in half, remove the stem and seeds 7, then slice it into sticks 8. Peel and trim the carrots, then slice these into sticks as well 9.
Now trim the zucchini, cut them in half lengthwise and remove the white inner part 10, then slice into sticks of the same size as the other vegetables 11. Set aside and prepare the batter for frying the vegetables: in a bowl, pour the flour and sparkling water 12.
Mix well with a whisk 13 to get a smooth batter without lumps 14. Keep the batter in the fridge and prepare the breading for the fish: in a dish, combine the flour and semolina 15 in equal amounts (about 150 g or enough to bread).
Mix to blend the powders 16. Clean the shrimp: remove the head, peel off the shell keeping the tail, then remove the black string along the back 17. Now clean the squid and cut them into rings about 1.25 inches wide 18.
Finally, cut the cod into chunks, they should be roughly the same thickness as the shrimp 19. Heat the seed oil for frying, it should reach about 356°F. Coat the shrimp in the breading 20, then remove excess flour with a sieve 21.
Proceed in the same way with the squid 22 23 and the cod chunks 24.
Once all the fish is well floured 25, start frying by immersing a few pieces at a time with a slotted spoon: begin with the shrimp 26, then drain them once they are golden brown 27.
Let them drain on a tray lined with paper towels 28. Continue frying the cod 29 and then the squid 30.
Drain everything on the tray 31 and set aside. Now for the vegetables: dip them in the batter you prepared earlier 32 and mix well 33.
Immerse the vegetables in the hot oil 34 and fry until the batter is crispy and golden, then drain on paper towels 35. Finally, salt to taste. The mixed fried fish and vegetables is ready to be served with the caper sauce 36!
