Our family has an annual fish fry that centers around my mom's recipe. I think she makes the finest fried fish around. It's flaky and flavorful with a golden cracker-crumb coating, and her homemade tartar sauce is a fitting complement.Julie Jahnke, Green Lake, Wisconsin Ingredients:
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
1-1/2 cups crushed saltines (about 45 crackers) |
2 pounds whitefish fillets, cut in half lengthwise |
oil for frying |
tartar sauce: |
1 cup mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish |
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion |
Directions:
1. Place eggs and cracker crumbs in separate shallow bowls. Dip fillets into eggs, then coat with crumbs. Let stand for 5 minutes.
2. In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry fillets, a few at a time, for 2 minutes on each side or until fish is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork. Drain on paper towels.
3. In a small bowl, combine the tartar sauce ingredients. Serve with fish. Yield: 6 servings.
