Fish Fingers – Take 2

Goodness!!! This post has been on my drafts for so long, it’s about time I finalise it.

I cooked this a while back so I can’t quite remember the story behind it, sorry. All in all I know I was in the mood for some fish hence the reason I cooked this.

I tried a different recipe from my previous one here.

I decided to make a paste with different spices to coat the fish fingers.

1 tbsp fish masala, 1 tsp crushed garlic, 3 tbsp dried parsley, 1 tsp coriander powder and 1/4 tsp paprika

In a bowl, add about 3 tablespoons of all purpose flour, mix in the spices then beat in 2 eggs. Remember to add in some salt.

Making the paste

After beating in the second egg the paste will look like this.

The paste

Fish fingers.

Tip: Sprinkle some little salt over the fish fingers.

This method of making fish fingers is less tedious since you just dip them in the coating once.

Coat the fish with the paste. Let it stand for about 15 minutes before cooking.

In a pan, heat some oil for frying the fish. Ensure the oil gets hot before adding the fish to avoid it from sticking in case you aren’t using a non stick pan like me.

Let them cook for about 7 minutes or until browned on each side. Drain over a paper towel covered plate.

Others browned more than others. O-o

Voila, easy and quick fish fingers.

Served them with some spicy potato wedges and kachumbari.
