Yellow Fish Recipe

If you like to eat fish, don’t miss the opportunity to try this recipe for fish in yellow, a fairly simple preparation made with battered fish, cooked in an onion sauce with white wine and a touch of saffron.

We have used monkfish, but you can make yellow dogfish or even yellow hake, that’s up to you.

The important thing is that you follow the instructions of this easy recipe to the letter.

Ingredients to make Yellow Fish:

• 600 grams of Monkfish in slices or any white fish
• 1 large onion
• 1 glass of dry white wine
• ½ glass of olive oil
• 3 tablespoons of flour
• 1 tablespoon of vinegar
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 pinch of saffron threads
• 1 pinch of thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt

How to make Fish in Yellow:

1. To make this yellow fish recipe we have decided to use monkfish, but if you prefer you can use other white fish such as dogfish or hake.
2. Bearing this in mind, we will start by marinating the fish. To do this, in a container we mix the wine, vinegar, six tablespoons of olive oil, a pinch of salt, thyme and bay leaf. Add 1/2 glass of water, mix everything well and submerge the fish slices.
3. We leave for a couple of hours, turning the fish from time to time.
4. Once marinated, drain the fish, strain the juice from the marinade and reserve it.
5. To coat the monkfish pieces, prepare a plate with flour to coat and flour the fish.
6. Separately, we heat 4 tablespoons of oil in a frying pan and fry it on both sides. Let it drain on absorbent kitchen paper to release excess oil.
7. On the other hand, peel and chop the onion. Heat a couple of tablespoons of olive oil in a pan and sauté the onion over low heat with a pinch of salt.
8. Then we add the reserved marinade, raise the heat and let it reduce for about 5 minutes.
9. Separately, we mash the saffron threads with a tablespoon of the cooking brother in a mortar, add it to the pan, stir everything well and add the fried fish slices.
10. We keep cooking the fish in white wine for 5 more minutes and that’s it.
11. The yellow fish is served piping hot and, as you can see, a touch of green will suffice to decorate the plate.
