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.
