Oat Crusted Fish

Description

Another way to enjoy your deep-fried fish. I think it is traditionally Scottish. Try it for a change. Serve warm with chips and lemon or salad.

Ingredients

  • vegetable oil for frying
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 4 (6 ounce) fillets cod
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour for coating
  • 2 cups quick-cooking oats
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Whisk together egg and milk in a bowl. Coat cod fillets with flour; shake off excess. Dip cod in egg mixture; allow excess to drip off. Coat cod with oats.
  3. Place fish one at a time in hot oil; fry for 2 to 3 minutes
  4. then turn over
  5. and fry 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove to paper towels. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
