Method

Preparation of Tartar Sauce

  1. 1

    In a bowl, mix together mayonnaise, dill pickle, capers, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined. Set aside in the refrigerator to chill.

Preparation of Fish

  1. 2

    In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In another bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 3

    Dip each pollock fillet first into the egg mixture, then into the cornmeal mixture, ensuring that they are well coated.

  3. 4

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated fish fillets and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assembly

  1. 5

    To assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous amount of tartar sauce on the bottom half of each burger bun.

  2. 6

    Place a fried fish fillet on top of the sauce, add a handful of shredded lettuce, and then place the top half of the bun on.

  3. 7

    Serve immediately with extra tartar sauce on the side.
