How To Fry Fish Like a Pro (Plus My Favorite Potato Recipe Ever!) | Father's Day Fish Fry

[@MiVidaBellisima]

You always teach me how to do new things (frying) in a way that is so thorough that I’m not only not intimidated to try it, but it turns out beautiful EVERY TIME!!!! I went from hit or miss in the kitchen to a respected chef in my household just by learning your technique/styles/recipes

[@MrMakeItHappen]

Thank you for your support!

[@gloriamaryhaywood2217]

I agree. Really like the casual way he talks us thru his recipes! Keeps everything simple, not overly complicated! And let's you know you can substitute your own seasonings or cut of meat or fish, ect. All in all an excellent job of sharing his recipes!😉😎

[@bherber]

@@gloriamaryhaywood2217 - Did I say it got on my nerves? I'm just pointing out fakeness. Whether it's a black or a white guy, just speak how you speak. Don't change accents depending on the audience.

[@TREWHIT1]

@@bherber Maybe he speaks the way he grew up. There was no need for that comment. Take the negativity somewhere else.

[@bherber]

@@TREWHIT1 - And you were not in this original thread which means someone tipped you off to comment here apparently to oppose me. Congrats I guess but yeah, this guy has to stop being fake with the accent. Cooking is great tho. Don't stop with the great cooking.

The fish, potatoes is something you can not resist.

[@debbietoon5405]

Wow! I love the potatoes recipe and I will try it. The fish was fried to perfection. I am sure when eating that plate your mouth said so good to the lips and bad for those hips. Just to make you smile. Loved the video. I will be watching you from now on.

[@swexxy1018]

I love how you are so thorough in explaining what your doing (specific on temps and why you cut the fish the way you did). I'm new to cooking and your videos help ALOT 😂. Proud of you and congratulations on your success!

[@MrMakeItHappen]

Thank you! I do my best lol

This looks real good. Thinking of doing the smashed potatoes as a breakfast dish with onions, bell pepper, and sausage. And I think I’ll coat a few pieces of fish (separate meal 😆) in corn meal for comparison. Hope your Father’s Day was great.

[@johnettaw30]

[@gregjohnson720]

At 5:35 you said « corn starch » instead of corn meal or did you mean that you add corn starch to the corn meal/AP flour mixture? Tony Chacere’s seasoning is great also.

[@catherineharris27]

Can someone please explain to me what"talking black" is? He speaks in a warm inviting voice. He is understandable and very purposeful and direct with his directions and lays out his recipes step by step. So if all these things are present in his delivery, why are you emphasizing his dialect? Sounds like someone is a little "ENVIOUS

[@debbiedibble1086]

Made this tonight and found out two things. I don’t care for catfish or truff oil. Fried up beautiful. But I think those are two taste that you either really like, or dislike. Liked potatoes, I par boiled about minutes or two too long. I went to smash them and they broke completely apart. 4 out of 7 came out right. Thanks, both were pretty looking😊
