Method

Hake Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Coating

    In a shallow dish, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, and paprika.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.

  3. 3

    Coat the Hake Fillets

    Dip each hake fillet first into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly with the flour mixture. Set aside.

Cooking the Hake Fish

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  2. 5

    Fry the Hake Fillets

    Carefully add the coated hake fillets to the hot oil, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Poutine Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook the French Fries

    Prepare the frozen French fries according to the package instructions, either baking or frying them until they are crispy and golden brown.

  2. 7

    Prepare the Gravy

    Heat the gravy in a saucepan over medium heat until it is hot and bubbling. If desired, season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 8

    Assemble the Poutine

    Place the hot French fries on a serving plate, top with cheese curds, and generously pour the hot gravy over the top.

Serving the Dish

  1. 9

    Serve Together

    Serve the fried hake fish alongside the loaded poutine for a delicious meal.
