Flash-fried garlic fish

This recipe needs advance preparation!

A wonderfully simple way to cook fish and keep the flavours and freshness. This recipe makes expensive cod go a long way by slicing it into two thin fillets.

If you want to increase the servings to 4 people, just increase the fish, the rest should be fine as is.
