Description (Some HTML is OK)
As the chicken ones were such a success I tried it with fish and it was equally good. I used pollock as its the new 'eco' fish and also is rich in omega 3. These can also be frozen and reheated.
Ingredients
Makes 4 servings
- 2 pollock fillets
- 2 slices white bread (crusts cut off)
- ¼ tsp paprika
- pinch of salt and pepper
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
Preparation
Cut the fish into strips - I found the fish was naturally about the right width and you just needed to cut it into 3 pieces.
Put the bread, paprika and salt and pepper into a magimix or food processor and whizz until you get smooth breadcrumbs. Put the breadcrumb mix into a wide bowl. In a different bowl whisk the egg with a fork.
One at a time put the fish into the egg followed by the breadcrumbs making sure they are fully coated.
Heat the oil in a large wide frying pan until it is good and hot. Put the fish into the frying pan (the oil should sizzle when you put them in). You may need to do this in 2 batches. Cook the pieces for 2 mins each side (they need to be a golden brown colour before turning so if you're unsure leave for another minute). Transfer to a plate covered in kitchen roll to cool.
These can be served immediately or wait until completely cool and put in a freezer bag and into the freezer. To reheat, cook at 200'c for 20 mins (from frozen) - just like the ones from the supermarket!

Comments
Never heard of pollock! I'll have to check next time I'm in the supermarket. (BTW, you should update the tags on the recipe to say fish.) We are major fish finger fans here, though, so I can't wait to try this out.
