Fish
Sandwich
This
is a non-gluten variation on the traditional “fish and chips”
sandwich. I use Bob's Red Mill non-gluten flour to coat the fish and
use low heat in a non-stick fry pan containing only a tablespoon of
oil. The fish is tasty and the coating still gives the sandwich a wonderful crunch. This recipe serves 4.
Ingredients:
1
pound of cod or other firm white fish, cut into 4 ounce
equal-thickness pieces
2
small eggs with 1-2 Tbsp. of water
1
½ cups of non-gluten flour
2
Tbsp. grape seed or avocado oil
salt
and pepper to taste
4
Tbsp. mayonnaise, homemade if possible
2
Tbsp. organic ketchup
1
small dill pickle, diced
Directions:
Mix together the mayonnaise,
ketchup and diced pickles in a small bowl and set aside.
Beat the eggs and water with
some salt and pepper together in a 9 inch shallow bowl or pan. Place
the flour with some salt and pepper into another 9 inch shallow bowl
or pan. Put the oil into a fry pan set on medium low....just high
enough to get the fish to sizzle, but not too high as to burn the
floured fish. On my stove, I set the heat on number 4 out of a
possible 10 setting that is high. Dredge the fish in the flour, then
coat it with the egg, then, flour a second time. This gives you a
resulting crispy coating on the fish. Test the oil with a pinch of
flour to see if the oil is hot enough to give a sizzle to the flour.
If so, you are ready to cook the fish; if not, wait a little and
retest until the test flour sizzles. Place the fish in the fry pan
and cook for 3-5 minutes a side, according to the thickness of the
fish. Each side should be a lovely golden brown color.
