Buttermilk Fried Fish Fillets

Excellent taste and very easy! Good for any meaty white fish fillets.

My note: you can "marinate" your fish in buttermilk overnight. This way, you do not have to rush cooking it: it doesn't spoil, and the flavor will not suffer (or even better) when you prepare your fish next day!
