Crispy ikan bilis #2

Crispy ikan bilis


I had a previous blog entry on this, which involved using the microwave. It does turn out well, but one downside is that it takes multiple batches since the microwave can only make so many at one go. 

This time, I tried using the oven. While it wasn't as crispy - it was at least much more scaleable.






Ingredients:

Ikan bilis
Oil


Instructions:

1) Wash the ikan bilis (I usually wash them for two rounds), then let them dry as much as possible.

2) Spread out the ikan bilis on a tray. They should be in a thin layer.

3) Drizzle some oil over the ikan bilis.

4) Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celcius, then put the tray in for 10 minutes. At the 5-minute mark, toss the ikan bilis a bit just to make sure it is cooked evenly.

5) Increase the temperature to 200 degrees Celcius for another 5 minutes.

6) Serve immediately, or let it cool first before keeping it in an airtight container.
