This is a new take on traditional “Fish & Chips” – We will use Bang-Oh (방어) as it is called in Korea, in english we call it Yellowtail or Japanese amberjack. Amberjack has pale pink flesh with firm large flakes and sweet flavor. The Yellowtail we are using is K-Fish Certified form the waters off the coast of Korea – and we purchased it at H-Mart – right here in New Jersey.
Instead of Traditional Chips – or Fries, we will fry Perilla Leaves for our Chips. They are also called Sesame Leaves. If you go to your local H-Mart, ask for Sesame Leaves. It is in the mint family and has a licorice taste. It is very pleasing taste not strong. This will off set our Fried FIsh very well.
