Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

For tartar sauce
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallot
1 tablespoon sweet relish
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon whole-grain or coarse-grain mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
For fish
1 cup yellow cornmeal (not coarse)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
4 (5-oz) flounder fillets
3/4 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Make tartar sauce:
  • Pulse all sauce ingredients in a blender until parsley is finely chopped.
  • Cook fish:
  • Stir together cornmeal, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne in a shallow bowl. Stir together flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne in another shallow bowl. Lightly beat together eggs, milk, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a third shallow bowl.
  • Pat fish dry and dip fillets, 1 at a time, in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in egg mixture, letting excess drip off, and dredge in cornmeal until evenly coated. Arrange fish in 1 layer on a sheet of wax paper.
  • Heat oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then fry fillets, 2 at a time, turning over once, until golden and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Serve fish with sauce.

The fish was a bit overcooked, but the crust was crispy and flavorful.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could use some more seasoning.
