Behind the Scenes: How We Prepare Our Signature Tilapia

At Remicious Online, the Tilapia isn’t just a dish—it’s an experience. Every plate tells a story of tradition, craftsmanship, and fresh ingredients from Lake Victoria. Here’s an exclusive look at how we bring this iconic dish to your table.

1. The Journey Begins at Lake Victoria

Our Tilapia comes straight from the pristine waters of Lake Victoria. Sourced fresh daily, the fish is selected for its size, quality, and flavor. Local fishermen ensure the catch is handled with care, preserving its natural taste.

2. Cleaning and Prepping the Fish

Once the Tilapia arrives in our kitchen, it undergoes a meticulous cleaning process. We use traditional methods passed down through generations, ensuring the fish is handled with care. This step is crucial to maintaining the fish’s freshness and removing any impurities.

3. The Secret Marinade

What sets our Tilapia apart is the marinade. A blend of locally sourced spices, fresh lemons from Vihiga, and a hint of garlic and ginger creates a flavor explosion. The fish is marinated for hours, allowing the flavors to penetrate deeply.

4. Cooking to Perfection

We use two main methods to prepare the Tilapia:

• Pan-Fried Tilapia: For a crispy, golden finish, we fry the fish in organic sunflower oil.
• Grilled Tilapia: Cooked over charcoal for a smoky, tender result.

Both methods ensure the fish retains its natural juices while enhancing its flavor.

5. The Final Touch

Each plate of Tilapia is served with a side of organic sukuma wiki, creamy ugali, and tangy kachumbari (a tomato and onion salad). The combination creates a harmonious balance of textures and flavors.

Our Signature Tilapia isn’t just a meal—it’s a celebration of Kisumu’s rich culinary heritage. Order today and taste the magic of Lake Victoria in every bite.
