Fish Fillet

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Preparing the Fish

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading

    In three separate shallow dishes, place flour in the first dish, whisked egg mixed with milk in the second, and a mixture of cornmeal, paprika, salt, and black pepper in the third.

  2. 2

    Bread the Fish

    Dredge each fish fillet in flour, then dip in the egg and milk mixture, and finally coat with the cornmeal mixture. Ensure the fillets are evenly coated.

Frying the Fish

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until hot, around 350°F (175°C).

  2. 4

    Fry the Fish

    Carefully place the breaded fish fillets in the hot oil. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  3. 5

    Drain the Fish

    Once cooked, remove the fish and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the brioche or hamburger buns lightly on a skillet or grill until golden brown.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread tartar sauce on the bottom half of the bun. Place a lettuce leaf, a fried fish fillet, a slice of tomato, and pickles on top. Cover with the top half of the bun.
