Toddler Bento: Deep fried plaice with seaweed 

• Deepfried plaice with seaweed
• Grilled potato and meat sauce with mozzarella cheese
• Avocado and tomato salad
• Rice with sour plum leaves

Saved some portion of plaice from previous dinner and soaked with soy sauce and sake overnight. Adding seaweed powder into the deepfry batter is known as "Isobe-age". The hint of seaweed makes normal deepfried fish very tasty and flavoursome.

Directions

1. Cut the plaice into bite sized and soak with a pinch of salt, soy sauce, mirin and sake (or white wine) 1 teaspoon each for a while.
2. Dust plaice pieces with cornflour and  seaweed powder.

3. Deepfry the pieces with small amount of oil (do not have to use a lot of oil to deepfry) until they get nice golden colour.
