Ingredients

Steps

01.

Cut fish into 2 cm-thick strips, 6 cm in length.

02.

Dust fish in flour, dip in egg and roll in combined breadcrumbs and lemon zest to coat. Arrange on tray and chill 15 mins.

03.

Heat oil in large heavy-based saucepan on high (temperature should reach 170 C), until a pinch of breadcrumbs sizzles as soon as it is added.

04.

Deep-fry fingers in 3 batches, 2-3 mins each, until crisp and golden. Drain on crumpled paper towels. Serve with lemon cheeks, salad and aioli.

To make your own aioli, combine ½ cup whole-egg mayonnaise, 1 tbsp lemon juice, ½ tsp lemon rind and 1 crushed garlic clove. Season to taste.
