Revamp your dinner menu: Try fish encased in crispy pancake batter

Though often categorized as meat, fish is an ideal choice for fasting days like Friday. But why settle for traditional dishes? Fish in pancake batter offers a novel twist to your menu, delivering a crispy exterior and a juicy interior for a delightful meal.

The key to this dish lies in the crispy pancake batter breading, keeping the fish moist and flavorful on the inside. The batter requires no special ingredients - just flour, milk, eggs, and a dash of spices.

Opt for fish with white flesh and few bones for the best results. Choices like cod, pollock, hoki, or hake are ideal. Selecting boneless fillets ensures a more enjoyable eating experience.

Ready to try this scrumptious dish? Here’s what you’ll need:

- 4 boneless fillets of your chosen fish

- 2 eggs

- 1 cup of milk

- 1 cup of all-purpose flour

- Salt

- Pepper

- Smoked paprika

- Herbes de Provence

- Oil

1. Combine the milk, eggs, flour, and spices in a bowl to form a thick batter.

2. Cut the fillets into smaller pieces, coat them in the batter, then fry in hot oil until they’re golden brown on both sides.

3. And that’s it! Enjoy your crispy and juicy fish in pancake batter, a dish that’s sure to tantalize your taste buds.

- Feel free to incorporate other personal favorite herbs or spices into the pancake batter, such as oregano, thyme, or chili pepper.

- For an even juicier fish, brush it with butter or olive oil before frying.

- Alternatively, you can bake the fish in pancake batter. Preheat your oven to 356°F and bake the fish for about 20 minutes.
