Fish Tacos

  • 600 g Skinless white fish fillets bones removed
  • 1 1/2 cups Panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup Plain flour
  • 2 Free range eggs beaten
  • 1 tbsp Mexican seasoning homemade or store bought
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • Olive oil for frying

Pineapple Salsa

  • 1/2 Pineapple diced
  • 3 Tomatoes diced
  • 1/2 Red onion finely diced
  • 1 cup Coriander chopped
  • Drizzle of olive oil
  • Juice of 1-2 limes
  • Salt to season

To Serve

  • 12 Small tortillas
  • 1/4 Cabbage, red or white shredded
  • 2 Carrots grated or julienned
  • 1 Cucumber sliced or julienned
  • Fresh batch of guacamole
  • Coriander leaves picked
  • Lime wedges
  • Greek yoghurt (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
  • Combine all salsa ingredients together in a bowl. Season to taste with salt and set aside.
  • Pat fish dry with paper towels and remove any remaining scales or bones. Cut into large 2cm-thick fingers. Combine flour, Mexican spice and salt in a dish; coat fish well in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Dip each piece of fish in egg then coat in panko bread crumbs.
  • Heat oil in a large fry-pan on medium heat. Cook fish in small batches for 1-2 minutes each side, or until just cooked through. Set cooked fish aside.
  • Warm taco shells in oven according to packet instructions (usually about 5 minutes at 180°C).
  • To serve put salsa, chopped veggies, fish, guacamole, greek yoghurt and taco shells in the middle of the table and let everyone build their own.
