Ingredients
- 2 pieces Cod fillets
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.75 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 4 tablespoons Tartar sauce
- 2 pieces Cheddar cheese slices
- 2 pieces Hamburger buns
Directions
Step 1
Start by seasoning the cod fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 2
Prepare three separate bowls: one with the all-purpose flour, one with the beaten egg mixed with water, and one with breadcrumbs.
Step 3
Dredge each cod fillet in the flour, shaking off excess. Then dip the fillets into the egg mixture, and finally coat them evenly with the breadcrumbs.
Step 4
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot enough so a breadcrumb sizzles when dropped in.
Step 5
Carefully place the breaded fillets into the hot oil and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and the crust is golden brown. Transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 6
While the fish is frying, lightly toast the hamburger buns in a separate dry pan until slightly golden.
Step 7
Assemble the sandwiches by spreading 1 tablespoon of tartar sauce on the bottom half of each bun.
Step 8
Place a cooked fish fillet on top of the tartar sauce, followed by a slice of cheddar cheese.
Step 9
Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
