Fried fish is a popular dish enjoyed worldwide, often associated with cuisines like Southern American comfort food, British fish and chips, or Southeast Asian street fare. Typically, it's made by coating fillets in a seasoned batter or breading and frying them in oil until golden and crispy. Common fish used include cod, catfish, tilapia, or haddock. Fried fish is rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids (depending on the type of fish), and essential vitamins like B12. However, its nutritional profile can vary based on preparation. Deep frying increases calorie and fat content, which may not align with heart-healthy diets. Replacing traditional frying with air frying or pan frying in minimal oil can reduce unhealthy fats while maintaining flavor. Pairing fried fish with fresh vegetables, whole grains, or citrus-based condiments can create a balanced, nutritious meal. It combines a satisfying crunch with the natural benefits of seafood.
