For frying if you treat it as cod and haddock you can’t go wrong

I have never tasted such beautiful fish! The texture was similar to plaice but much deeper with more guts. It was deeped fried in batter and I challenge anyone to say otherwise!!

I am about to introduce Pangasius in our country. I am from the Philippines and I got spawners from Indonesia as a token from their consul’s family. I want to learn more recipes of this fish so the Filipinos will be trained to include this menus on their tables. To teach them the cooking is also to market them our product

Yeah, that should work pretty well. Basically, you can treat Pangasius/Basa fish just as any other catfish. Yet it has some advantages: The meat is very firm and virtually boneless. The fillets might be a little bit bigger, though. But you can easily cut them to a fitting size. Maybe we should add a recipe on this or you might want to contribute your experience?

For quite some years Pangasius has been farmed in the United States, too. But the main producers, such as Vietnam raised their production significantly. Vietnam raised the production of Pangasius and “Basa”, the trade label for the Pangasius Hypophthalmus and Pangasius bocourti from some 400,000 tons in 2005 to over one million tons in 2007, having a market value of more than 700 million U.S. dollars. Pangasius is farmed using primarily flooded rice fields. The fish are kept in special ponds or within cages natural flowing waters until the frozen filets are exported to the rest of the world. The main consumers are countries of the European Union (Read more on Pangasius farming). [...]
