tilapia

Tomorrow I am going to make fried Tilapia Filets. I batter them with cornmeal, salt, and pepper. I just love tilapia. It always has such a good taste to it. We will probably have basmati white rice with it and ice tea. Maybe some sweet peas as well

I also love Tilapia. What we do is stuff them with tomatoes and onion then bake them--it locks in the flavor. They also tastes good when grilled, plus the bones are not hard to take out compared to other fish varieties.

Oh ok , so that is why whenever it says FIlet they are really filet. YOu know like I will buy other filet fish and I will find a few bones in them while eating. But seems as though with tilapia I dont find bones. That sounds good with the onions and tomatoes though.

I love tilapia too. It is my favorite fish and tastes delicious grilled and served with fruit salsa.

I like Tilapia when my dad cooks it. LOL I can't seem to make any fish taste good.

Can tilapia be steamed?

I have never had tilapia. However, I do have a bag that I purchased. I am wonder what is the best way to cook this fish instead of frying it. The onions and tomatos sound good but for some reason my kids don't like cooked tomatoes and they dont like onions either.

Well, for me, I like tilapia grilled or steamed. I refrained from eating it fried ever since I started dieting. My nephew doesn't like it cooked in tomatoes too or anything with sauce so maybe you can try it just grilled or steamed.

I love tilapia too. I like them fried and eaten with sliced tomatoes and fish sauce. I'm not a fan of tilapia stuffed with onions and tomatoes and wrapped with either banana leaves or aluminum foil then grilled or fried, but my parents and my other siblings seem to like them very much. It smells good though while cooking. Tilapia cooked in coconut milk is also very good.

Hi Clara, this sounds interesting. Do you have a recipe for this?
