The boys love fish fingers, so I figured I should make my own. It’s safe to say I won’t be buying any more ready made ones in the future. These are too amazing!
The crispy crunch of the cornflakes makes these fish fingers taste extra special and they’re even grown up enough for the adults to enjoy too! Just squeeze over some lemon and serve with tartare sauce.
Make Your Own Fish Fingers Recipe
Chop the cod into finger length pieces and squeeze over the lemon juice. Put to one side whilst you prepare the coating.
Place the bread, cornflakes, parsley, lemon zest and pepper into a food processor and mix until you have breadcrumbs. Place in a bowl ready to cot the cod.
Coat the cod in the flour.
Dip the cod into the egg and then straight into the breadcrumbs.
Heat a little oil in a pan and fry the fish fingers for a couple of minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

Fish fingers were one of my favourites when growing up and every now and again I buy them for a bit of nostalgia. But these look so much tastier and a bit more grown up 🙂
Glad you like the look if them. You must give them a go! You could even make a batch and freeze before cooking so you can have these every time you feel nostalgic x
