INGREDIENTS:
- Fish Fillets (Boneless Baramundi, Basa, or Tilapia)
- Lemon Juice 1 tbsp
- Salt to taste
- Black Pepper Powder 1/2 tsp
- Red Chili Powder 1/2 tsp
- All-purpose Flour 1/2 cup
- Water 1/2 cup
- Panko Breadcrumbs 1 cup
- Cornflakes 1/2 cup (lightly crushed)
- Oil as needed for frying
METHOD:
Serving size: 5-6
Slice the fish fillets into 1-1.5 cm. wide and 6-8 cm. long strips (finger-sized).
Toss the fish fillets gently with salt, lemon juice, chili powder, and black pepper. Let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
Combine flour, water, salt, black pepper and red chili powder to make a smooth slurry.
Mix breadcrumbs and cornflakes in a plate.
Dust each fish fillet lightly with dry flour (optional, but it helps the coating stick).
Dip into the slurry and roll in the panko-cornflakes mixture. Press gently so the coating adheres well.
Let the breaded fish fingers rest in the fridge for 15-30 minutes.
Shallow-fry or deep-fry the fish fingers on medium heat in batches until golden and cooked through.
You can bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees C for 15-20 minutes, turning once until crisp and golden.
Enjoy hot with lemon wedges and your choice of either garlic mayo, tartar sauce, sweet chili sauce, or ketchup.
