Nice one. A small tip tho, that is actually not the best way to take the maximum flavor and color out of saffron. As Persians do, soaking it in warm water or using ice cubes on top of it gives you a better result.

[DarksouIjah]

You need you're own TV cooking show mate. You are hysterical and great in the kitchen as well.

[jackhackett]

British af dish...lived in England for a while and ate these many a times without ever trying before...delicious

[Hunnie_B]

Looks like the rain didn't put a damper on your delicious food, I would pay 7 bucks John, absolutely spot on !

[benbrunskill]

just the idea of this with a good pint has me drooling

[canticuscanticus]

Healthier than most fried foods. Bit of white wine with that.

[ThisIsMyFullName]

Cheap and delicious. That's the best combo.

You can prepare them the same with fresh water fry/minnows too, catch them in one of those kiddies fishing nets and you are laughing. They taste exactly the same floured and fried. The head is always the best crunch.

THE FOOD BUSKER DOES IT AGAIN! Looks delish mate!

Hi John. Saffron mayo a king decision !! Wouldn't you say the frying time was a tad on the skimpy side, though? The crunch, baby, the crunch... 🤔 !?

[Anna_]

Absolutely love that type of food! Do it as often as I can at home. 🤤🇸🇪

[thehappyfoodie]

Oh that looks delicious. We'd brave the rain too for crispy whitebait too!

[FoodAndDrinkInSeconds]

These look cracking, loved to have tried them. 
Congrats on the win, well deserved :)

Personally for that size of whitebait (large) I would be cooking them much longer because you need them crispy but also you need the guts and bones to be cooked through. When you pulled them out there was too much water still in the fish because the oil was still bubbling vigorously. Just my personal preference if you want crunchy well cooked whitebait.

I ate some great whitebait in Prague, pairs well with a jug of Pilsner Urquel. Coincidentally, that was about the time this video was posted.

[skad]

You think that'd be 4.50? How much do you think the amount of saffron used costs?

[bobbybrandt]

John, been a fan for ages, but you need to write your recipies down m8. Share the love!
You obviously don't need to follow up on that suggestion (what do i know right;)), but I think it would do wonders for your popularity. And who doesn't want to be populair? ;)

[davidstorton]

In summer here in Weymouth I can just scoop those out of the sea by the BUCKET load, the mackerel chase them in and they beach themselves trying to escape (you can just go along with a carrier bag and fill it)

[yusaku]

looks delicious! will go great with beer
