Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup (62.5 g) all purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup (30 g) potato flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon (3 g) salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon (1.5 g) garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon (1 g) onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon (0.5 g) ground black pepper
  • 4 (4) cod filets about 3 ounces each
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) cooking oil

Instructions

  • Pour the flour onto a shallow plate. Beat the egg in a bowl. Combine the potato flakes, salt, garlic powder, onion, powder and black pepper in another bowl.
  • Pat dry the cod filets. Dredge them in the flour, then the egg, then the potato mixture. Place on a wire rack to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Heat the cooking oil in a frying pan over medium high heat until shimmering. Place the cod filets in the pan, spaced apart so they aren’t touching. Cook for 3 minutes per side, until golden. The internal temperature of the fish should be 145 degrees F when done.
