Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • For the Fish Fillet:
  • 400 g white fish fillets like cod, haddock, or pangasius
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 egg
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • For the Tartar Sauce:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1-2 tbsp pickles finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Other Ingredients:
  • 3 burger buns halved
  • 3 slices of cheese
  • Lettuce leaves

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the fish: Cut the fish fillets into portions and season with salt and pepper. Dredge each piece in flour, dip in the beaten egg, and then coat in breadcrumbs.
  • Fry the fish: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry each fillet for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Make the tartar sauce: In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, pickles, lemon juice, and mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Assemble the sandwich: Lightly toast the buns. On the bottom half, place a fish fillet, spoon on tartar sauce, add a slice of cheddar cheese (optional), and a lettuce leaf. Top with the other half of the bun.
  • Serve: Enjoy your homemade Fish-O-Fillet sandwich while the fish is still warm and crispy.
