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

Wash the yellow and red potatoes under cold water, rinsing two to three times until the water runs clear.

Cover the cleaned potatoes with water, add about 1 tablespoon of salt, and bring to a boil for 5 to 7 minutes until fork tender.

Cut the rainbow trout fillets in half to create six equal-sized fillets, approximately 3 ounces each.

In a mixing bowl, season the fish with all-purpose seasoning, Old Bay seasoning, and a quarter packet of sazon, massaging the seasonings into the fish.

In a separate bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour with 1 cup of yellow cornmeal and the remaining seasonings used on the fish, mixing until evenly distributed.

Prepare an egg wash by whisking together 4 eggs, a quarter cup of milk, and about a teaspoon of hot sauce.

Allow the boiled potatoes to cool, then hand smash them until partially flattened, ensuring they are dry before frying.

Set up the frying station with seasoned fish, egg wash, seasoned flour, and a plate for resting the breaded fish.
