Homemade fish fingers


A classic British favourite - fish fingers. A lovely recipe to cook with children and show them what a family favourite actually consists of. Oddly enough, it's mostly fish.

Definitely try making your own breadcrumbs. If you've got a food processor then it really is very simple to throw a few pieces of bread in - and it really doesn't matter if they're stale or fresh. Lastly, you can fry or bake these but as I made these with children, I decided to bake them.

 

Ingredients:

  • Cod 500g

  • Flour 100g

  • Eggs - 2

  • Salt/Pepper

  • Breadcrumbs – 100g

  • Parmesan - 30g

  • Thyme - handful

 

Preparation:

  1. Prepare a bowl with seasoned flour (salt, pepper and a herb of your choice).

  2. Crack the eggs and whisk these together.

  3. In another bowl, pour in your breadcrumbs and add parmesan.

 

Method:

  1. Dab your fish dry with kitchen roll.

  2. Slice into 3 or 4 finger shaped pieces.

  3. Sprinkle with salt.

  4. Place these into the seasoned flour and coat the fish.

  5. Now carefully cover the fish pieces in egg - drip off the excess, you just want a coating.

  6. Roll the fish in the breadcrumbs.

  7. Place on a baking tray and cook at 220 degrees C for 15-20 minutes.
