Marides tiganites

(Μαριδες τιγανιτες, Μαριδες τηγανιτες, Fried whitebait)

This simple Greek dish consists of small-sized whitebait fish that are lightly dusted with flour, then fried until golden and crispy. Because of its small size, the fish is typically fried, served, and eaten whole. Marides is a staple meze dish that is usually accompanied by other Greek starters, but it can also be enjoyed as a meal on its own.


It is best dressed up with a squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil.
