1
Prepare the Coating
In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, salt, and black pepper.
2
Prepare the Egg Wash
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
3
Coat the Perch
Dip each perch fillet into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly with the flour-cornmeal mixture. Place on a plate and repeat with all fillets.
4
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet or deep frying pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
5
Fry the Perch
Carefully add the coated perch fillets to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
