Hi Erlanda Williams, This is very common in Malaysia. We use/serve fried anchovies with many type of dishes. Yes, it is really delicious and addictive. 😀 thank you for the comment
Hi Mary Heng, thank you for the comment 😀 Yes, the oil is still quite clear and not very cloudy. The oil can still be used to make stir-fry veggies, or used once more to deep-fry meats or fishes. Once the oil is cloudy, I would discard it. Hope it helps 😀
@mgellerster. Thank you for sharing. I like to remove the head and the stomach when frying anchovies. I find it a bit bitter if fry them together with the head and stomach intact 😀😀
Normally, I would pan fry it after washing without oil to remove moisture. And after few mins, I would add just enough oil to coat it and it will be sizzling. Equally good without using too much oil. Question is, how would I do that if I want to coat with the tempura floor this way?
Hi Antony Chong, thank you for sharing 😀 I've not tried this method before, so I'm unable to advice on how to incorporate the tapioca flour into the steps. However, it sounds like your method is already very solid, so the tapioca flour may not be necessary 😀 Hope it helps 😀
Hi WINSTON TEOW, thank you for the comment 😀 I don't suggest other flours apart from tempura flour as other types of flour tends to make the anchovies hard and dense. Hope it helps 😀
Hi Sharon Majella. No need to dry it. With a bit of moisture is great as flour can stick better to the ikan biblis. Directly put the flour after wash and fry it. Thank you for the comment. Happy cooking 😀
Hi i_ing widjaj, thank you for the comment 😀 Yes, other tempura flours can be used as well. I wouldn't recommend other non-tempura flour as they tend to make the anchovies quite dense, but not crispy. Hope it helps 😀
Hi Joyce Dass, thank you for the comment 😀 I don't recommend the normal (wheat/ all-purpose) flour as they tend to make the ikan bilis denser but not crisper. If Gogi tempura flour is not available, any tempura flour will do as well 😀 Happy cooking!
Hi Alain Oki, thank you for the suggestion 😀 It can be done if preferred, however, I wouldn't suggest it as the water is quite salty and may be full of impurities from the anchovies. Hope it helps 😀
Hi Jeff Phoon. No need to dry it, coat it with tempura flour to absorb the moisture and fry it, coating the flour must be done right before putting the anchovies in the hot oil. I hope this helps. 😊👍

Used to be poor man's food in the past. Now, it's expensive and not so affordable for the poor unless it's poor grade.
Hi Antony Chong. Yes, it's super expensive, the slightly better quality even more expensive. Thanks for the comment 😀

Tks for sharing. What do you do with the used oil? Can use for stir fry veggie? 🤔
Hi Mary Heng, thank you for the comment 😀 Yes, the oil is still quite clear and not very cloudy. The oil can still be used to make stir-fry veggies, or used once more to deep-fry meats or fishes. Once the oil is cloudy, I would discard it. Hope it helps 😀
Good....🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hi Edy Kosasi, Thank you 🙏
I made this today, but kept the anchovies whole and intact. No need to remove the head
@mgellerster. Thank you for sharing. I like to remove the head and the stomach when frying anchovies. I find it a bit bitter if fry them together with the head and stomach intact 😀😀

You can just microwave the washed anchovies and they will be crispy without any flour or oil.
Hi ML Lim, thank you for the comment 😀 I've not tried it as we don't use a microwave at home 😀
Good, tq
Hi Surapaya, thank you for the comment 😀 Happy that you like it 😀

Hi REINA. Thanks for the comment. 😊😊 Happy cooking
Instead of tempura flour can use normal flour or other flour?
Hi WINSTON TEOW, thank you for the comment 😀 I don't suggest other flours apart from tempura flour as other types of flour tends to make the anchovies hard and dense. Hope it helps 😀
Me too !
Hi Devi S, thank you for sharing 😀
After washing,do you need to dry the anchovies or can I fry them straight way with flour.
Hi Sharon Majella. No need to dry it. With a bit of moisture is great as flour can stick better to the ikan biblis. Directly put the flour after wash and fry it. Thank you for the comment. Happy cooking 😀
Hi dear if i dun have gogi flour, others flour can be substitute ?
Hi i_ing widjaj, thank you for the comment 😀 Yes, other tempura flours can be used as well. I wouldn't recommend other non-tempura flour as they tend to make the anchovies quite dense, but not crispy. Hope it helps 😀
Ok, understand dear.. Gonna buy gogi flour 1st tomoro at market. I got tried your ginger scallion recipe too.. It's so nice 😍😍 thank you

Hi Monica Francis. Nice! Thank you for trying the recipe. Please share with us how it turns out 😀
I do wash & drain the ikan bilis..but must try your shared method la - 2morrow must get d tempura flour...
Biasa flour can or not ?
Hi Joyce Dass, thank you for the comment 😀 I don't recommend the normal (wheat/ all-purpose) flour as they tend to make the ikan bilis denser but not crisper. If Gogi tempura flour is not available, any tempura flour will do as well 😀 Happy cooking!
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit what about potatoes flour or rice flour ?
Hi JANNIE NG, I have tried. Not ok.
hi.. conflour can or not?
Second wash water can be kept to cook sambal.
Hi Alain Oki, thank you for the suggestion 😀 It can be done if preferred, however, I wouldn't suggest it as the water is quite salty and may be full of impurities from the anchovies. Hope it helps 😀
Where can buy the Gogi tempura flour? If can't find it you mentioned any tempura flour will do?
Hi Patrick Lee, Yes, any tempura flour will work as well. 😀😀
Nsk
does the ikan bilis need to be dry first?
Hi Jeff Phoon. No need to dry it, coat it with tempura flour to absorb the moisture and fry it, coating the flour must be done right before putting the anchovies in the hot oil. I hope this helps. 😊👍
@@HomeCookingwithSomjit it does. thank you
