Instructions
- Heat enough oil to deep-fry in a medium saucepan to 180˚C. Deep-fry the garlic crackers until crisp, about 10-20 seconds. Once cooked, remove and transfer to a plate lined with paper towel and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the kingfish sashimi cubes and coconut oil and mix well to combine.
