Fillet O' Fish sandwich



Serves 2

Fish:
2 fillets of mackerel, patted dry (I leave the skin on but you can remove it if you want)
1/2 - 1 cup of plain flour, seasoned with salt and pepper
1 beaten egg with a splash of milk
1 cup panko bread crumbs with a dash of cayenne pepper
Oil for frying

Tartar sauce:
2 heap dessertspoons of mayonnaise
1 tablespoon capers
3 sweet spiced gherkins (you can use the large pickles just reduce the number), finely chopped
1/2 medium white onion, finely chopped
salt & pepper

Bread:
1 full loaf of ciabatta cut in half (or whatever bread you like really!)

1. Mix all ingredients for the tartar sauce.

2. Place flour, egg and bread crumbs in three different shallow plates.

3. Heat some oil so that it covers the base of a shallow frying pan.

4. Coat the fish fillets in flour, egg, and then bread crumbs, and fry till golden brown. 2 - 3 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels.

5. Split the ciabatta in half and spread one heap tablespoon of the sauce on one side of the bread.

6. Place the fillet in between the bread. Serve with chips and salad.
