• Fry the whitebait in small batches to prevent overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
• You can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika to the flour mixture for an extra kick of flavor.

Storage and Serving

• Fried whitebait is best served immediately while still hot and crispy.
• If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Reheat the whitebait in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes to regain its crispiness.
