Fried anchovies are a popular dish with origins in Mediterranean and Asian cuisines, celebrated for their bold flavor and crispy texture. These small, oily fish are coated in a light flour or breadcrumb batter and fried until golden brown. Anchovies are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health, and they also provide a good source of protein, calcium, and vitamins like B12 and D. While these nutrients make fried anchovies a nutritious choice, the frying process can increase their fat content and calories, particularly if prepared with oil high in saturated fats. Served on their own or paired with lemon, fresh herbs, or a dipping sauce, fried anchovies are a satisfying snack or appetizer. Balancing portion size and preparation methods can help retain their health benefits while savoring their crunch and robust flavor.
