FISH FINGERS
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
A Kilo of Fish Fillets - Fish of your choice, but Cod is recommended
1 Teaspoon of Freshly Ground Black Pepper
1 Level Teaspoon Salt
Half a Teaspoon Mustard Powder
Half a Teaspoon Garlic Powder
Half a Teaspoon Paprika
Juice of 1 Lime
Grated Peel of 1 Lime
Pinch of Thyme
A Little Parmesan Cheese - Grated
1 Egg
1 Tablespoon Cream or Milk
Some Plain Flour
Some Plain Flour
Breadcrumbs
Oil for Shallow Frying
DIRECTIONS
Wash and pat dry the fillets. Cut them into strips and lay them out on a flat tray.
Sprinkle salt, lime juice, black pepper, garlic powder, mustard powder, paprika. Rub well to coat all over and set aside for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile. Beat the egg. Add the cream or milk and whisk with a fork. In a separate bowl, tip in the breadcrumbs, cheese, thyme, a twist of black pepper, pinch of salt and lime peel. I also added sesame seeds and you can do the same if you wish. Doesn't make a difference in taste but it gives a better finishing to the fried fish. Place the flour in a separate plate or bowl.
Lift each piece of fish and dip in flour, shake off excess as only a light dusting is needed. Dip in beaten egg. Dip in breadcrumbs and pat slightly to fix crumbs in place. Lay them out on a flat tray and set aside for 10 minutes before frying.
Heat oil in a frying pan until oil is moderately hot, and place a few pieces of fish at a time As soon as one side has changed colour, flip over. Do not fry for more than a minute on each side. Remove from oil once you see that the crumbs are golden brown. Place on absorbent paper to drain off excess oil.
Serve hot with ketchup, coleslaw, chips and/or bread rolls - as you desire! ENJOY!!!
