Curried Fish Fingers image

Fresh fish fingers with a delicate curry flavour. In NZ I like to use snapper but any firm white fish should be fine to use. A cheap meal if you catch your own fish :) this is another from my old trusty (1970's)Alison Holst cookbook.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

500 g firm white fish fillets
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
pepper
2 teaspoons water
1 egg
1 cup dry breadcrumbs
1/2 cup flour (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut the fish fillets lengthwise into 3/4" (2cm) strips, then crosswise into fingers. Cut crosswise with the knife at an angle so the fingers taper at each end.
  • Mix the seasoning with the water, then add the egg.
  • Coat fingers with flour then egg mixture then breadcrumbs for a thick coating.
  • For a thinner coater just dip in egg mixture and then breadcrumbs.
  • Stand coated on a rack for 15-30 minutes if desired for the coating to firm.
  • Cook the fingers in 1/4" (5mm) of oil in a hot pan for 2-3 mins, turning once, until the coating is golden brown.
  • Drain and serve with wedges of lemon if desired.
