Tips
Kids will love helping you crumble slices of bread into breadcrumbs, plus coating the fish with the egg and breadcrumbs.
Why not avoid expensive fish like cod or haddock and try a cheaper, sustainable fish for a change such as pollock or coley - once it's covered in breadcrumbs no-one in your family will have a clue! Fresh wet fish counters at supermarkets often discount heavily later in the day and fresh fish freezes well. This recipe makes 4-6 fish fingers, simply increase the ingredients if you want to make more.

I don't know a single child that doesn't love fish fingers . This is a great recipe for mums - now I can make their favourite dinner knowing theres no nasties in what they're tucking into.

I do a similar recipe but I season with a little rock salt and pepper and add around 40g parmesan cheese to the breadcrumb mix. Yummy.

Great recipe, was quick to cook and very tasty. I had some cheap fish that I'd bought at the supermarket that i didn't know what to do with so this was really handy!
