Peixe Frito offers a simple yet satisfying flavor profile, characterized by the natural taste of fresh fish enhanced by salt, lemon, and the crispy texture achieved through frying.
The primary flavor is the delicate taste of the chosen fish, such as sardines, mackerel, sea bass, or horse mackerel. Salt is crucial for seasoning and drawing out moisture before frying. Lemon juice adds a bright acidity that cuts through the richness of the oil and complements the fish. The frying process itself imparts a savory, umami flavor, while the crispy skin provides textural contrast.

Fish Selection
Choose the freshest fish available, ideally from a local fish market. Smaller fish like sardines and mackerel are particularly well-suited for frying whole.
Preparation
Ensure the fish is thoroughly cleaned and dried before frying. Patting it dry helps to achieve a crispier skin. Lightly dredge the fish in flour or cornstarch for extra crispness, if desired.
Oil Temperature
Maintain a consistent oil temperature (around 350°F/175°C) to ensure even cooking and a crispy exterior. Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this will lower the oil temperature.
Serving Suggestions
Serve Peixe Frito immediately after frying, accompanied by lemon wedges, boiled potatoes, rice, and a simple salad. A sprinkle of parsley or cilantro can add a fresh touch.
