here fishie fishie

I'm sure all of us love our fish & chips but most of the time it's deep fried and oily, thus we avoid eating it unless and major craving hits. This week this recipe for oven-baked fish and chips kinda crossed my path twice so I just had to try it out. I went for the Parmesan-crumbled recipe and it was fantastic! Was pleasantly at how crispy the coating was despite not going anywhere near the pot of oil. Anyway, here's the recipe in case any of you have a craving and don't want the hassle of deep frying. Oh btw I didn't make the fries, it was frozen wedges which was heated in the oven too. But I made a wasabi mayo dip to go along with the fish.

Ingredients (serves 2)

• 1 cup breadcrumbs (you can be creative with this, I used this nutty walnut bread)
• 1/2 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
• some finely grated lemon rind
• 120g melted butter
• 4pcs of any skinless white fish fillets
• 1 beaten egg
• plain flour for dusting
• lemon wedges to serve

Method

1. Preheat oven to 220 degrees. Place breadcrumbs, cheese, lemon rind and 80g of the butter in a bowl and mix well.
2. Dust the fish in the flour, dip in egg and press in breadcrumb mix.
3. Place fish on baking tray lined with non-stick paper and bake for 15mins or till golden brown. Serve with lemon wedges, ketchup and wasabi mayo. Enjoy!
