Mixed fried horse mackerel and anchovy combines two small fish with distinct textures: horse mackerel is meatier, while anchovies are smaller and more delicate. They can be served together, though their different sizes may mean they need slightly different cooking times.
Dry the fish thoroughly, coat them lightly, and fry in hot oil without crowding the pan. Excess moisture and a crowded pan lower the oil temperature, so the fish tend to steam rather than develop a crisp coating.
The fine bones in small, thoroughly fried fish may become crisp enough to eat, but larger bones can remain hard. Check each fish, especially when serving children, and remove the backbone if it is not crisp or easy to chew.
Thaw the fish completely before frying mixed horse mackerel and anchovy, then pat it dry. Frying frozen fish can cause oil to splatter and leaves the coating wet while the inside cooks unevenly.
A light dusting of cornmeal is a common choice for mixed fried horse mackerel and anchovy and gives the fish a crisp, delicate crust. Shake off excess coating so it does not clump or overpower the fish.
The fish should be opaque and separate easily with a fork; the coating should look crisp, not wet. Because anchovies are usually smaller than horse mackerel, check the larger pieces rather than assuming every fish finishes at the same time.
Lemon and a fresh green salad balance the rich, crisp fish. Mixed fried horse mackerel and anchovy also pairs well with roasted potatoes or simple vegetables; serve sauces on the side so the coating stays crisp.
Reheat mixed fried horse mackerel and anchovy in an oven or air fryer until hot; these methods help restore some crispness. A microwave warms it quickly but usually softens the coating. Refrigerate leftovers promptly in a covered container.
Mixed fried horse mackerel and anchovy may stick if the pan or oil is not hot enough, the fish is damp, or you try to turn it too soon. Dry the fish, heat the oil first, and let the coating set before turning.
It provides fish protein, but frying adds oil and makes the meal richer than grilled or baked fish. Pair mixed fried horse mackerel and anchovy with vegetables, and vary it with non-fried seafood if you eat fish often.

Mixed fried horse mackerel and anchovy is a Turkish-style seafood dish made with small fish, usually cleaned, lightly coated in flour and fried until crisp. It is common in coastal cooking and fish restaurants, where the exact catch can vary with the season.
The fish are crunchy outside and tender inside, with the distinct, savoury flavour of each kind coming through. They are usually served hot with lemon and salad; bread is a natural accompaniment, too. This is a protein-rich dish, though frying makes it more substantial than simply grilled fish. For a lighter meal, drain the fish well and pair them with a generous salad rather than adding other fried sides.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
