Note:
This is a simple dish enjoyed in Cuba's fishing cities and towns. It's a quick recipe to prepare. The secret lies in properly cleaning the fish and achieving a perfect tempura. By following Chef Iván's steps, we guarantee it will be a sure success. We hope you enjoy it, and if you make it at home, don't forget to share your photos with us.
Ingredients:
  • 6 small red-haired rabbits
  • 2 eggs
  • 8 tablespoons of flour
  • ¼ cup of water
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup of breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup of frying oil
Instructions:

Carefully clean the fish to ensure it retains its tail and fins, which are important for its aesthetic appeal. Remove the backbone and main bones. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.

We beat the eggs with salt and pepper to taste. Add the flour, water, and whisk vigorously until you achieve the tempura consistency demonstrated by the chef in the video.

Take the fillet, previously seasoned, and immerse it in the tempura batter. Then, coat each fillet in breadcrumbs and set it aside until you are ready to fry.

Heat the oil over high heat. Fry the fillets skin-side up for about 3 minutes.

This cut of fish is delicate; it shouldn't be exposed to heat for too long, or the flesh will dry out.

Repeat the process until all the portions are fried.

This dish can make for an excellent summer lunch. Serve the small bites with bread, salad, and your choice of sauces.

Enjoy your meal!
