Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup whole milk
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
4 flounder fillets
Salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons canola oil
4 sesame-seed hamburger buns
4 leaves romaine lettuce
1/2 tomato, sliced
4 slices mild cheese, such as mild cheddar (optional)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons pickle relish
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 dash Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs. In another medium-size bowl, mix together the flour, cornmeal, and parsley.
  • 2. Season the fish with the salt and pepper.
  • 3. Dredge the fish through the egg mixture, then coat it thoroughly with the flour mixture.
  • 4. In a large sauté pan, immediately heat the oil over medium-high heat. When it is hot but not smoking, add the fillets to the pan. Cook on one side until the batter is light golden brown, about 4 minutes. Carefully turn the fillets and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Using a slotted spatula, remove them from the pan and drain on paper towels.
  • 5. Meanwhile, whisk together the tartar-sauce ingredients (if using).
  • 6. Slice the buns and spread the tartar sauce (if using) on the insides. Place a fillet on each bottom bun, then top with the lettuce, tomato, and cheese, if desired.
