OMG I've Run Out Breadcrumbs!

Didn't feel like walking up to the shops so I crushed some cornflakes. To crumb the fish. For fish n chips.

 

The old-fashioned way, with a rolling pin between two layers of grease-proof paper lol

 

Hope hubs doesn't notice but I think he will.

 

Will keep you posted.

No bread at all in the house.    You're kidding.

 

No toasted sammiches on the week end then?

why didn't you make a beer batter instead?

I was going to suggest corn flakes.


But why not leave fish clean ?

Or flour, beer batter as suggested

A bit of flour and dip in egg wash. No need for crumbs at all!  Bewdiful.

 

Wonder if the cornflakes would be too sweet?

Icy. If you have three slices of bread, tear them up into medium size pieces, throw them into the food processor with some salt, pepper and any herbs you have then whizz the heck out of them.
Three slices should cover enough fish for 3-4 people.
I have'nt bought breadcrumbs for years.
When you get to the last 3 slices of bread whizz them, stick into a kliplock bag and stick in the freezer.
They thaw out as soon as they hit the air.
They turn crunchy and golden brown when cooked.

I would prefer crumbed (bread)  fish rather than battered fish... have to wait for the verdict on how the cornflake crumbs went down.

Mum used to use crushed Sao bikkies on flathead fillets following the flour and egg "dipping".  I have heard of brekky cereal in the past.  I would not use Coco Pops or Fruit Loops.
