600 g of codfish (fresh codfish)

150 g of breadcrumbs

50 g 00 flour

2 eggs

fine salt

1 lemon

1 liter of frying oil

Cut the cod into pieces, preferably of the same size, wash them well under running water and put them to drain. In a bowl mix flour and breadcrumbs, then mix well the pieces of fish. In a second bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and a few drops of lemon juice. Then dip the fish fillets in the water for about 5 minutes.

Every so often stir them gently. Then proceed to bread the pieces of cod one at a time, putting a little pressure on all sides, so that the breadcrumbs adhere and do not come off during frying.

In the meantime, heat the peanut oil and fry the fish on a high flame until golden brown.

Dry on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Salt and serve hot, accompanying it with the salad and some toasted polenta.

Good appetite
