Storage: Best served immediately. Any leftover salsa can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Substitutions: You can use chickpea flour or rice flour instead of cornflour for the coating. Swap carrots for cabbage or jicama for a different crunch.

Tip: Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the fish to prevent it from becoming soggy.
