As a student whose family is not always home for dinner, i would have to cook/buy food on my own. When theres food at home, it would be good for me as i would be able to whip up dishes myself. If not, i would have to buy my own ingredients and cook dinner.

So i came up with this recipe. The fish was 4$ for 600grams as it was bought frozen. I used panko breadcrumbs which was 3$ for a packet of about 5 cups. Everything else in the dish was either very cheap, or a staple at home.

For this dish, i spent less than $10, and it comfortably fed me, my cousin and 3 friends. My original recipe was for 4, but i halved it here.

Steps

45 mins

1

Prepare 300 g of white fish. (150g/pax). I defrosted frozen dory fillets. They were easy to handle and were of appropriate size to bread.
2

Pat the fish very dry with kitchen towels. Slice into 10cm by 5cm chunks, no more than 1.5cm thick. Set aside.
3

Prepare 3 shallow bowls:
1st bowl:
1/4 cup flour, salt and pepper and seasonings, incorporated well.
2nd bowl:
Breadcrumbs
3rd bowl:
2 eggs, whisked thoroughly
4

Now, have a systematic breading system on your kitchen counter top.
Fish-> flour -> eggs -> breadcrumbs-> dry platter
Heat up the oil to medium high, or until a breadcrumb dropped in sizzles just a little. Take the piece of fish, dip in this order:
1) flour, pat of excess
2) egg
3) flour again, pat off excess
4) egg
5) breadcrumbs
Repeat this one by one and place on the platter.
5

Once all the fish have been breaded, the oil should have been hot enough. Test the heat with a few breadcrumbs. It should sizzle nicely. Fry off the fish in batches. Shallow-frying means that the oil does not completely cover the fish, so you would have to flip the fish. Fry each side for approximately 3 minutes.
6

Serve the fish with a sauce, and a side if the fish is a main, or a main dish, if the fish is a side.
