Breaded Fish for the Freezer

Tender white fish, coated in beaten egg and crispy bread crumbs. Pop into the freezer and pull out whenever you want a tasty and highly-nutritious dinner!
Serve with boiled potatoes and peas for a classic, British-inspired supper, or put in a taco or burger for a comfort food twist.

Serves: 12 breaded fish pieces (from 4 fillets, I would say 6 servings in total)

Container: you will need a small airtight container with greaseproof paper to separate the layers of fish so they don’t stick together in the freezer.

Time: approximately 15 minutes

Ingredients:

2 eggs, lightly beaten

1 cup breadcrumbs mixed with a pinch of salt and pepper

4 large white fish filets, cut into 3 pieces each

Method:

  1. Prepare by setting the working space with your beaten egg in a small bowl, and your breadcrumbs mixed with salt and pepper spread onto a plate, have your fish pieces next to them on a plate, ready to be dipped.
  2. Have a tray lined with baking paper ready too, so you can put the coated fish on it to freeze.
  3. Dip the fish pieces into the beaten eggs and transfer them straight into the breadcrumbs, turning to coat thoroughly on all sides.
  4. Place the coated fish onto your lined tray, cover with plastic wrap and place into the freezer until almost frozen.
  5. Place the almost-frozen fish pieces into your small container lined with baking paper, place another layer of paper between each layer of fish so they don’t stick together.
  6. Place straight into the oven from the freezer when you want to eat them! Don’t thaw them out first.
