Crispy Oven Fish Fry With Mushy Peas Food

CRISPY FISH

Steps:

• In medium bowl, combine the potato flakes, flour, garlic powder, seasoning salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
• Soak fish filets in bowl of cold water.
• In a deep skillet or deep fryer, melt and heat the shortening to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Dredge fish filets in dry mixture and fry in the hot oil for 5 minutes or until fish flakes apart easily. Remove from oil and place on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

MUSHY PEAS I

Steps:

• Bring a shallow pot of lightly salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add frozen peas, and cook for 3 minutes, or until tender.
• Drain peas, and transfer to a blender or large food processor. Add cream, butter, salt and pepper to peas, and process until blended, but still thick with small pieces of peas. Adjust seasonings to taste, and serve immediately.

FISH FINGERS & MUSHY PEAS

Steps:

• Slice the fish into 12 fingers, each about 3cm thick. Put the seasoned flour, egg and breadcrumbs into 3 separate shallow bowls. Dust the fish pieces first in the flour, then coat well in the egg, and cover completely in the breadcrumbs. Put on a plate and chill for 15 mins.
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the fish fingers and fry for 8 mins, turning occasionally, until golden and cooked through. Meanwhile, add the peas to a small pan of boiling water. Cook for 4 mins until really tender. Drain, tip into a bowl with the butter, zest and mint, and roughly mash with a potato masher. Season to taste and keep warm.
• Serve the golden fish fingers with a generous spoonful of mushy peas, lemon wedges and new potatoes, if you like.

CRISPY FISH & CHIPS WITH MUSHY PEAS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 4. Peel and chop the potatoes into thick chips, then toss with the olive oil and some salt. Arrange on a large non-stick baking tray and roast for 20 mins, turning halfway.
• Lightly toast the bread, then pulse briefly in a food processor for coarse breadcrumbs. Dust the fish in flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the egg, then breadcrumbs to coat thoroughly. Roast the fish with the chips for a further 20 mins, until both are golden.
• Just before the fish and chips are ready, boil the peas for 3-4 mins, then drain and mash. Stir in the crème fraiche and season.

TRADITIONAL BRITISH MUSHY PEAS

Steps:

• Put the split green peas in a large pot with the baking soda and enough water to cover the peas four times over. Cover and allow to rehydrate in the fridge overnight.
• Drain the peas in a colander and rinse with cold water to remove any lingering baking soda.
• Return the peas to the pan and cover with cold water by 1/2-inch. Add some salt, bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. During the simmering, discard any pea foam that forms on top using a slotted spoon. The peas are done cooking once they just lose their bite, 30 to 40 minutes. Overcooking results in soup, which isn't what we're going for.
• Remove from the heat, add the butter and stir to fully incorporate. Taste and add more salt if required.
• Serve immediately with fish and chips, or cool and store for up to 3 days.

CRISPY OVEN FISH

Steps:

• Put milk in a shallow bowl.
• Combine potato chips, parmesan, and thyme in another shallow dish.
• Dip fish in milk, then coat with potato chip mixture.
• Sprinkle a greased baking dish with the bread crumbs.
• Put fish over crumbs; drizzle with butter.
• Bake, uncovered at 500* for 12 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

CRISPY OVEN FISH

Steps:

• Mix dressing, lemon juice and seasonings until well blended.
• Spread dressing mixture evenly onto both sides of fish, then coat both sides evenly with coating mix. Discard any remaining coating mix. Place in single layer in greased shallow baking pan.
• Bake at 375°F for 12 to 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork.

OVEN BAKED CRISPY FISH

Steps:

• Marinade fish fillets in lemon juice and 1 tsp of garlic powder as well as a little salt for around 10 minute.
• Combine mayonnaise, mustard, and the remaining 1 tsp of garlic powder.
• In a second container, combine the cornflake crumbs and coriander.
• Remove fillets from marinade, and spread on them the mayo/mustard, and then coat them completely with the cornflake mixture.
• Place them in an oven safe dish that's been sprayed with Pam or other cooking spray.
• Spray more Pam on top of the fish (this will make the fish crust crispy), and bake in the oven at 450 degrees for 10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish.
• Serve with lemon wedges.
