Tips for cooking
You can substitute any part of pork you like. You can also enjoy with chirimenjako instead of whitebait. The cooking degree depends on the type of toaster you are using, so please adjust the temperature as you check the conditions. This time it's baked at 1000W 200°C (390°F). Toasters have a limited space inside which makes the food close to the heat source, so it has a risk of smoke or catching fire due to oil dropping or splashing. Keep an eye on the toaster while it is heating. *You must be of legal drinking age to consume alcoholic beverages.
