Method

  • step 1

    Pulse the bread to coarse crumbs in the food processor. Add the lemon zest, herbs and a pinch of salt, and pulse to make bright green, fine breadcrumbs.

  • step 2

    Cut the lemon sole into thick strips, about 3 x 10cm. Dust each fish piece with the fl our, shake off any excess, then dip into the egg then the breadcrumbs. At this stage, they can be cooked straight away, kept in the fridge for a few hours, or frozen.

  • step 3

    To serve, heat about 1cm of oil in a large frying pan. Once it’s nice and hot, fry the fish fingers a few at a time for 1-2 mins on each side. Drain on kitchen paper, and keep warm while you continue with the rest. When they are all cooked, serve straight away with the oven-roasted chips and tartare sauce.

Absolutely gorgeous dish, however I troubled to find the skinless sole, had to just buy the whole fish from a counter. Still worth the effort and all the family enjoyed. Will cook again soon

i plan on making these later on in the week and i was wondering if haddock would work just as well? also, would i cook it for the same period of time as 4minutes in total for each seems like a rather short cooking time? thanks

I found these easy to make and definately worth it. Be sure to get skinless fish tho, took me a while to skin mine! Very yummy though.

really tasty and very easy to make. I've also made this and added parmasan to the breadcrumbs as a topping on fish and baked them in the oven.

These look delish! Does anyone know if you can stick them under the grill like fishfingers?
