Pescaíto frito
If we had to choose the typical dish par excellence of Seville, it would be the pescaíto frito (fried fish) and, likewise, it is one of the most requested by tourists in any of the bars and restaurants of the city.
It consists of small fresh fish (anchovies, cuttlefish, anchovies, etc.), but with the difference that they are coated in flour and then fried in olive oil. The result is that they are crispy on the outside and very tender on the inside.
It is not a large dish, since it is served as a starter or tapa. It is also accompanied by a slice of lemon to give it an acid touch and a more intense flavor. We recommend that you try it with a good cold beer or a white wine.
