GUIDE / INSTRUCTIONS

TARTAR SAUCE

  • Mix ingredients in a bowl. Set aside for 10 minutes

TOAST BREADCRUMBS

  • Preheat oven to 180C/350F.

  • Spread breadcrumbs on a tray. Spray with oil directly down, not from the side.

  • Bake for 3 – 5 minutes until golden. Immediately transfer to a bowl.

  • Brush tray clean, spray with oil.

CRUMBING/BAKING

  • Cut fish fillets into square-ish shapes slightly larger than the buns (they shrink when cooked).

  • Mix Batter ingredients in a bowl.

  • Carefully coat fish in batter (handle with care, fish fillets can be delicate).

  • Place in breadcrumbs. Use other hand to cover top and sides with breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere. Transfer to tray. Repeat with remaining fish.

  • Bake 12 – 15 minutes until fish is cooked through. Immediately top with cheese – allow residual heat to make it semi melt (do not oven melt processed cheese, you get a plasticy film!).

ASSEMBLE

  • Cut buns in half, microwave for 20 seconds to warm through (microwave = stays soft).

  • Top with fish and cheese, dollop with tartare sauce. Devour!
