Pan-fried Pangasius fish

2. Sprinkle cornstarch on the surface, put it in a frying pan (preferably a non-stick pan), heat the pan with cold oil and fry over low heat until both sides are golden brown.

3. Place on a plate and sprinkle with chopped green onions (I personally also like to add some black pepper).

Steamed Basa Fish

Fried Basa Fish

You can buy pangasius fish products that are already coated with flour! If you buy fish fillets and then coat them with flour yourself, that is also fine...

The nutritional value of longli fish will be higher.

Basa fish is a freshwater fish, while longli fish is a deep-sea fish. Therefore, relatively speaking, the content of unsaturated fatty acids in deep-sea fish will be higher. Eating them can promote brain development and enhance memory. Therefore, the nutritional value of longli fish will be higher.

However, Basa fish also contains many nutrients and is relatively cheap, so you can feed your children some Basa fish in your daily life, which is also very nutritious.

Can I eat Basa fish if I am allergic to seafood?

It depends.

Although Basa fish is not seafood, for some people who are allergic to seafood, they are mainly allergic to a certain protein contained in seafood.

Only after confirming that you are not allergic can you continue to eat it. If allergic symptoms occur, it is not recommended to eat it.
