Malaga Fish Fry (Fritura Malagueña)

(Malaga Fish Fry)

Fritura Malagueña is a traditional dish originating from Malaga. The dish consists of smaller seafood varieties such as shellfish, small fish, and crustaceans that are rolled in flour and fried in oil until crispy and golden. The smaller varieties are used because there is no need to worry about any bones.


Once fried, the fish is enjoyed with a sprinkle of lemon juice and a roasted pepper salad. Extra-virgin olive oil is always used to fry the fish, and it often includes baby squid, salmonete (red mullet), mackerel, prawns, cuttlefish, and boquerones (fried anchovies).


This fish fry can be enjoyed as a tapa or as a snack, and it's recommended to pair it with a bottle of ice cold beer.
