Pan fried breaded cod served with chilled potato salad and fresh green vegetables. Plus a homemade tartar sauce.

Another really simple dish. The breaded cod was bought in a box at the frozen section and just pan fried them. Wished I had an oven and that would be much easier... That way, I wouldn't be cleaning the newly 'decorated' kitchen with oil splatters : )
Other than that, the sides were repeats from previous dinners... hehehe. Fast and simple for me! ^_^
As for the tartar sauce, it was an attempt to finish up our big bottle of mayonnaise. I've added some finely chopped pickled gherkins in a bowl and squeeze a huge dollop of mayonnaise. Then I seasoned it with some salt and pepper. I also poured a teaspoonful of juice from the pickled gherkins. Mixed them up, et voila!
The cod was erm... hmmm... quite okay... Well, it was like having fish & chips at our local western food stall back home. Very simple and edible lah! The tartar sauce was kinda chunky because I chopped too many gherkins... but I like it! Yum Yums! Perhaps I should squeeze some lemon juice the next time when I make tartar sauce.
TheLoyalFan says: 'I was slightly disappointed with the fish fillet, it tasted like a huge fish nugget. As a result, it tasted really oily. The tartar sauce was great though... Never knew it was so easy to make.'
Cost for Day 5: GBP 3.00 for 2 pax.
Hugh fish nugget. hhehehe...
ReplyDeleteI think since you have the cabbage so sliced up, could've made coleslaw. One for next time, wherever you are going to be. ;)
Yup, huge ones : )
ReplyDeleteYea, this salad was a packet of 'seasonal greens' in Aldi : P
