Tilapia Fillet - An Experiment

I was curious how fillet a fish so I tried my hands with a Tilapia. My wife was laughing at me because she thinks that I should've done it while the fish is frozen; frankly, I still think she's right.

After I took out the bones, I rolled it into a mixture of flour and egg and then threw it on the frying pan - Breaded Tilapia Fillet. Results?

  • I put more salt than I wanted but my wife (perhaps just trying not to offend me) said it tasted good
  • I couldn't appreciate the fish meat completely because of too much flour covering, plus the fact that during the filleting process I was short of breaking it into smaller pieces.
  • Very oily due to excessive frying oil
Here are the pictures that I took:













Note: Now I have a reason to buy that dream knife of mine.
