Hi, I wonder if you could give some tips on how to make sure that the fish is cooked on the inside as well as on the outside? It’s a persistent problem that I have whenever I fry anything, that is, the inside is not cooked while the outside is already cooked. I know everyone will say that the heat is too high, but I always cook at medium to medium-high. When such problem occurs, do you have a solution for it?
Thanks, appreciate it.
