A surprising combination isn’t it?
I was skeptic at first, but I’ve made it 3 or 4 times already, which is a record for me.
Ingredients:
- white fish fillets
- grated Parmesan cheese (I used Grana Padano as well, with good results)
- bread crumbs
- cayenne pepper (or any other pepper you like, I like the heat!)
- 2 eggs
- white flour
- salt
Cooking instructions:
Amazingly simple.
On a pie plate combine bread crumbs and the grated cheese. The original recipe said 1/3 cheese for 1 portion bread crumbs, but I personally like to increase the proportion of cheese to 50-50 or more even. Mix well.
On a separate plate pour the flour.
Beat eggs, a pinch of salt and pepper in a third dish.
Take a fillet, coat with flour, then dip in the egg mixture and then coat with the bread crumb mixture. Repeat for each fillet.
Deep fry two fillet a a time. Drain on paper towels.
And voilà, your fish is ready, tender and moist inside, and with a slightly crunchy crust outside.
Fabulous with tomatoes sprinkled with olive oil and salt. Any other salad will do as well…
Enjoy!

looks very YUM!
what kind of fish would you recommend to use may I ask?
This looks YUM!!
I was wondering what kind of fish specifically would you recommend to use?
Hi Jen! Thanks for stopping by and commenting! I think any saltwater fish with a mild flavour would work (because the cheese has already a strong flavour): Alaska Pollock, cod or haddock for instance. Let me know how it works!
