Fish sticks with tartar sauce is the easiest baked finger food made with protein rich salmon. So flaky on the inside and crispy outside a healthy crowd pleasing starter enjoyed year round.
Baked fish sticks / fish finger, do I need to say any thing more!!
The book says 'stop buying and start making'. I went through the book and I was really happy to know that I was already making some of the things listed in it like hummus, yogurt, jam, salsa ,salad dressings , lentil soup, corn bread, ice cream, pizza and a few other recipes.U know the feeling u have when you open a textbook before exams and start looking at the pages there is some sort of relief when you are thorough you go oh I know that!! and that and that!!! there is suddenly a wave of energy reassuring that you are prepared. It boosts your confidence don't you think so.I was feeling the same as I turned the pages until I reached frozen food section I could check off some of those except fish sticks and chicken nuggets.Out of the two we have bought so much fish sticks ( Gorton brand) that the owners would have earned enough to buy a beach front home by now.:)))
When I saw how easy and straight forward this finger food recipe was I was asking myself why din't I do this earlier.Phew !! I have few more to dos in the list like graham crackers,coffee liqueur etc..
- Before I go to the ingredients
- I could not take step by step pics for the simple reason being I had to use both my hands. Using just one hand would ruin a lot of bread crumbs with drippings.
- As per the recipe given in the book fish goes through 3 coats that is dust with al.fl moisten with egg and again dust with bread crumbs but instead of egg part I used all purpose flour batter. Believe me for this reason alone the whole place is saved from the eggy smell.
