Breadcrumbed Cod and Chips For A Homemade Fish Supper

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings: 4
Course: Lunch
Cuisine: Mains

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Cod Fillets
  • Breadcrumbs
  • Flour
  • 3 Beaten Eggs
  • Chips Frozen or fresh, cooked.
  • Lemon and Parsley Garnish
  • Rapeseed Oil Optional for shallow frying.

Method
 

  1. Place flour, beaten eggs and breadcrumbs into three separate dishes and lay them out.
  2. First the fish needs to be dried. The easiest way to do that is to roll it in the flour until it is dry or coated.
  3. Then dip it in the beaten egg until fully coated.
  4. Finally dip it into the breadcrumbs until the fish is fully covered with a thin coating.
  5. Shallow fry in a frying pan on moderate heat for a few minutes until cooked. I prefer to cook in rapeseed oil. You could oven bake on a moderate heat for 15 - 20 minutes, but we prefer the shallow fry for speed.
  6. Garnish and Serve with Chips
