Wet marinade on the fish makes the flour slide off. Scrape, then dredge.

Any tips from this recipe?

Green seasoning keeps a week in the fridge and a month in the freezer. Make double and use it on chicken. The bakes are best within an hour of frying. The fish holds up better; fry bakes last. Coriander chutney and a Trinidad-style pepper sauce round out the toppings bar if you have time.

Can I use an air fryer?

This method is not written for an air fryer. The core technique on the page still applies.
