Ingredients

• 500 g White fish fillets (e.g., cod or haddock)
• 100 g Breadcrumbs
• 50 g All-purpose flour
• 2 Eggs
• 2 Garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped)
• 1 tsp Paprika
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 250 ml Vegetable oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

Start by roughly chopping the white fish fillets into small pieces and placing them in a food processor.

Step 2

Add the minced garlic, fresh parsley, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the food processor. Blend until the mixture forms a smooth paste.

Step 3

Transfer the fish mixture into a bowl and cover it. Chill in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes to make it easier to handle.

Step 4

While the mixture is chilling, set up three separate shallow bowls: one with all-purpose flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

Step 5

Remove the fish mixture from the refrigerator. Using damp hands, shape the mixture into sausage-like cylinders, roughly 10 cm (4 inches) long and 2 cm (1 inch) thick.

Step 6

Coat each fish sausage in flour, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally roll it in the breadcrumbs, ensuring an even coating.

Step 7

Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan or deep skillet over medium heat. Ensure the oil reaches approximately 180°C (350°F).

Step 8

Fry the fish sausages in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook each sausage for 2–3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

Transfer the cooked sausages to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 10

Serve the crispy fish sausages hot with your favorite dipping sauce or a side of fresh salad.
