NOTES:

• You can prepare crumbed fish in advanced. You can crumb the fish the day before you intend to cook it, just cover it with plastic wrap and keep it in the fridge.
• You can use cod, hoki or tilapia for this recipe.
• Crumbing involves coating fish in flour (seasoned), then dip it in the whisked egg, and finally with breadcrumbs or panko crumbs to firm coat the fish.
