PANFRIED FISH FILLETS WITH WARM POTATO AND FENNEL SALAD
Method
- Bring a medium sized pot 2/3 full of lightly salted water and bring to the boil
- Add the potatoes and bring back to the boil
- Reduce the temperature so that they are just on a gentle boil and cook until tender (about 15-20 minutes)
- Whilst the potatoes are cooking put all the ingredients for the dressing together in a small bowl and mix to combine, season with a pinch of salt and set aside
- Slice the fennel thinly and add to a large bowl
- Pick through the herbs and leaves discarding any long stalks and discoloured leaves and place into the bowl with the fennel
- When the potatoes are cooked drain and add to the leaves, drizzle over the dressing and add a generous grind or two of pepper
- Toss gently to combine and to allow the greens to lightly wilt and for the dressing to soak into the potatoes and fennel
- Dust fish fillets in flour and shake away excess
- Dip in egg and toss in combined breadcrumbs and parmesan
- Heat a frying pan filled with 1cm of olive oil, then shallow-fry fish for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden
- Drain on absorbent paper and serve immediately with potato and fennel salad and lemon wedges
