Fish Sticks With Yogurt- Mayonnaise Dipping Sauce

Recipe No: 21

Ingredients

• Fish without bones (Fillet)…….1/2 lb
• Lemon Juice………………………..1 Tablespoon
• Salt………………………………….…1/2 Teaspoon
• Pepper………………………………..1/4 Teaspoon
• Egg………………………………….….1
• Water………………………………….1 Tablespoon
• Bread Crumbs…………………...…1/2 cup
• Oil for deep frying

Method of Preparation

1. Cut the fish into thin strips, approximately the length of a finger. Wash and drain.
2. Marinate the Fish with Lemon Juice, Salt and Pepper and keep in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours. Keeping the fish that long in the marinade will help the fish absorb all the flavors. More than 8 hours will make the fish tough.
3. Beat an Egg with a tablespoon of water.
4. Dip the fish in the Egg and then in the breadcrumbs. Repeat this with all of the fish pieces.
5. Heat the oil on medium high heat and fry the fish fingers till golden brown.
6. Drain the excess oil on a paper towel and serve hot with the dipping sauce.

Ingredients for the dipping sauce

• Mayonnaise………………………..….1/4 cup
• Yogurt…………………………………..1/4 cup
• Green/Spring Onion chopped…..2 Tablespoons
• Dried Dill (Optional)………………..A Dash
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Method of Preparation

1. Mix all the ingredients together.
2. Serve it with hot fish sticks.

Notes: Any fish that has a thick flesh can be used. Here I used Tilapia fillets.

The fish sticks in the picture are a bit on the darker side as I used homemade Whole Wheat bread crumbs. Use white bread crumbs for a lighter color.

Use Panko Bread Crumbs (Japanese bread crumbs) for a more crispy texture.

Make it, enjoy the deliciousness and

serve it to your family with love....
