On Friday we had battered pearl perch fillets with salad.
Fresh mango in the salad was yummy...

I put them on a tray in the oven at a very low temp,
with a wooden spoon keeping the oven door ajar,
for a few hours until they were crisp.
I use them frequently in various dishes,
plus in a shaker to add a hot touch to a finished meal.
