Servings: 4
Ingredients
Fish Fingers
- 500-600 g white fish fillets firm, skinned, and pin boned (I like snapper, blue eye, kingfish, mahi-mahi)
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- ½ cup polenta non-GMO or organic
- 2 tbsp coconut flour any non-gluten flour you prefer or spelt if not gluten intolerant.
- salt to taste
Yoghurt Tartare
- ½ cup full fat natural or greek yoghurt
- 1 tbsp capers roughly chopped
- zest of one lemon finely grated
- salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Fish Fingers
- Cut your fish into fingers, about 2cm wide.
- In a bowl, beat the egg.
- In a second bowl mix the polenta, flour, and salt until combined.
- Heat a large pan over a medium-high heat. I cooked mine in a mild coconut oil, but you could also use butter or ghee.
- Dip the fish pieces in the egg then toss in the crumb and cook in the hot oil, turning once the crumb browns.
- Serve immediately.
Yoghurt tartare
- Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.

Could these be frozen at all? Before or after cooking perhaps?
Hi there Danika,
Yes you could freeze these fish fingers AFTER they are cooked.
Or you could freeze them if the fish was not previously frozen before you made them.
Cheers!
