Рецепт Fish Without the Deep Fry.
I have to admit, with all the hoarding, due to Covid-19, I was able to score supplies that the hoarders ignored. One such supply was bread crumbs - plain, Italian seasoned, and Japanese Panko. Not only had the prices not gone up, but there was no limit, so purchasing six of each was easy. Now some of you are thinking, "Wow, that's way too much to have in stock.". Maybe for you, but not in my household, as we use them with many, many recipes.
However, the price of cooking oils has gone up dramatically, so the next best cooking technique is oven frying. The coating still comes out crunchy when the bread crumbs used is the Panko. The oil used is non-stick cooking spray; no oil absorbed by the fish, and it doesn't stick to the baking pan.
The fish recommended for this is a firm, white flesh fish such as pollack, haddock or cod. Basically the same type of fish that could be battered, then deep fried. I have done it with catfish, but the cooking time is longer with the fillets being very thick. Or it could be cut in half lengthwise, but it's catfish, and who does that!?! I have to give kudos to the hoarders. Being a bunch of selfish low lives, has definitely forced home cooks to become creative.
