To make baked anchovy with rice flour, clean and dry the fish, coat it lightly in rice flour, and arrange it in a single layer on an oiled baking tray. Bake in a preheated oven until cooked through and lightly browned; crowded fish can turn soft.
No, baked anchovy with rice flour is oven-baked, not fried. A little oil can help the coating brown, but baking usually gives a different, less crisp result than shallow- or deep-frying.
Rice flour gives baked anchovy a thin coating that can brown lightly and helps keep the fish’s surface from feeling wet. Use just enough to coat the anchovies; a thick layer can become pasty rather than crisp.
Not always: the small bones in anchovies are edible when they are soft enough to chew comfortably. Baking does not guarantee that every bone will soften, so remove any that feel hard, and check carefully before serving it to children.
For crispier baked anchovy with rice flour, dry the fish thoroughly, use a light coating, preheat the oven, and leave space between pieces on the tray. Excess moisture and overcrowding cause the anchovies to steam instead of brown.
Baked anchovy with rice flour pairs well with lemon, a fresh salad, and vegetables. A simple side keeps the fish as the focus; crusty bread or potatoes also work if you want a more substantial meal.
Yes, thawed anchovies can be used for baked anchovy with rice flour. Thaw them in the refrigerator and pat them very dry before coating, since surface water makes the rice flour cling poorly and can leave the fish soft.
Baked anchovy with rice flour keeps for about 1–2 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate it promptly after the meal, and reheat it until thoroughly hot before eating.
Yes, you can reheat baked anchovy with rice flour in an oven until it is thoroughly hot. An oven or air fryer helps the coating stay firmer than a microwave, which tends to make it softer.
Baked anchovy with rice flour has a noticeable but usually mild fish flavor when the anchovies are fresh. Lemon and herbs complement it well; a sharp, unpleasant odor before cooking can indicate that the fish is no longer fresh.

Baked anchovy with rice flour is made by coating cleaned anchovies lightly in rice flour and cooking them on a tray in the oven. Anchovy is especially associated with Turkey’s Black Sea coast, where it is a much-loved seasonal fish; baking offers an alternative to the more familiar pan-fried preparations.
The coating turns lightly crisp while the fish stays tender and savoury. Serve it hot with lemon and a fresh salad for a simple meal, or add it to a spread of small dishes. It provides 18.5 g of protein per 100 g, and rice flour gives the coating a crisp finish without wheat. For a lighter plate, use oil sparingly and pair it with plenty of greens.
