  • 450g fish fillets
  • 1/3 cup flour seasoned with salt and pepper
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1½ cups panko breadcrumbs

  • ½ telegraph cucumber, cut in half lengthways and thinly sliced
  • 1 capsicum, core and seeds removed and thinly sliced

  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar (e.g. red wine, white wine)

Steps

  1. oven to 220°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper.
  2. Toss potatoes with a drizzle of oil on prepared tray and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20–25 minutes, until tender and crispy. Turn once during cooking.
  3. Pat fish dry with paper towels and remove any remaining scales or bones. Slice fish fillets into 2cm x 8cm strips and season with salt. Place seasoned flour in a bowl, whisk egg with milk in a second bowl and place breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
  4. Coat fish first in flour, then egg mixture, then breadcrumbs, shaking off excess as you go. Set aside.
  5. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frypan on medium-high heat. Cook fish, in batches, for 1–2 minutes each side, until golden and just cooked through. Wipe out pan between batches and add more oil as needed.
  6. While fish is cooking, prepare salad and lemon mayo. Combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl, season with salt and pepper and set aside. In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise and lemon juice until combined.
  7. Divide baby roasties and fish fingers between plates. Serve salad on the side and use lemon mayo for dipping fish fingers.
