Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g White fish fillets (e.g., cod or haddock)
- 100 g Breadcrumbs
- 50 g All-purpose flour
- 2 Eggs
- 2 Garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 250 ml Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
Start by roughly chopping the white fish fillets into small pieces and placing them in a food processor.
Add the minced garlic, fresh parsley, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the food processor. Blend until the mixture forms a smooth paste.
Transfer the fish mixture into a bowl and cover it. Chill in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes to make it easier to handle.
While the mixture is chilling, set up three separate shallow bowls: one with all-purpose flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.
Remove the fish mixture from the refrigerator. Using damp hands, shape the mixture into sausage-like cylinders, roughly 10 cm (4 inches) long and 2 cm (1 inch) thick.
Coat each fish sausage in flour, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally roll it in the breadcrumbs, ensuring an even coating.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan or deep skillet over medium heat. Ensure the oil reaches approximately 180°C (350°F).
Fry the fish sausages in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook each sausage for 2–3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the cooked sausages to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the crispy fish sausages hot with your favorite dipping sauce or a side of fresh salad.
