Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Frozen fish sticks
- 1 pack (2 sheets) Puff pastry sheets
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- Optional dipping sauce (e.g., tartar sauce or ketchup)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Bake the frozen fish sticks according to the package instructions (usually around 10 minutes). Remove and let cool slightly.
While the fish sticks cook, lightly flour a clean work surface and roll out the puff pastry sheets to smooth out any creases. If the sheets are too thick, roll them out to about 1/8-inch thickness.
Cut each puff pastry sheet into rectangles slightly larger than the fish sticks, approximately 3 inches by 5 inches. You should have 12 rectangles in total.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Place a fish stick on the short side of each rectangle. Roll the puff pastry around the fish stick, sealing the edges by brushing with a little egg wash. Pinch lightly to secure.
Place the wrapped fish sticks seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them.
Brush the tops of each puff pastry with the remaining egg wash for a golden finish.
Bake the fish sticks in a blanket in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden and flaky.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tartar sauce or ketchup.
