The fish in this recipe is actually fried in oil in the oven - it is not a low-fat alternative! The flavour and crunch are perfect. The recipe came from the March 08 copy of recipes+ magazine. Ingredients:
2 cups cooking oil or 2 cups olive oil |
1 cup soft stale bread crumb |
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated |
2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves |
1/2 cup plain flour |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
4 white fish fillets |
1 lemon, to serve |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. 2. Combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan and oregano on a large plate, and place flour and egg in separate bowls. 3. Dip fish, one piece at a time, into flour; shake off excess. Then dip into egg to coat lightly, and coat well with breadcrumb mixture. Repeat with other pieces of fish. 4. Place fish on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and chill for 15 minutes. 5. While fish is chilling, place oil in a large roasting pan in oven and heat until a cube of bread turns golden brown in 20 seconds. 6. Carefully place fish into hot oil in pan in oven. Cook for approximately 3 minutes, then turn fish carefully. Cook further 3-4 minutes until golden brown. 7. Remove pan from oven and transfer fish to paper towel to drain. 8. Serve with a salad and lemon wedges. |
