Ingredients

Sunflower oil, for deep-frying

100g fresh white breadcrumbs

30g finely grated Parmesan

1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

50g plain flour

2 large eggs, beaten

12 x 75-100g, lemon sole,

Lemon wedges, to serve

For the mayonnaise

6 tbsp mayonnaise

2 tsp fresh lemon juice

1/2 tsp finely grated lemon zest

8 fresh basil leaves, very finely shredded

Directions

Mix the mayonnaise ingredients together and season to taste.

Cover and chill.

Half-fill a large, deep saucepan with sunflower oil and heat to 190C.

Mix the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, cayenne pepper and a pinch of salt on a large plate.

Put the flour onto a second plate and season lightly.

Pour the beaten eggs into a shallow dish.

Season the fillets lightly on both sides.

Coat each fillet, 1 at a time, first in the flour, then the beaten eggs and finally the breadcrumbs.

Deep-fry 2 pieces at a time for 2 minutes until crisp and golden. Drain on plenty of kitchen paper and keep warm in a low oven while you cook the other fillets.

Serve with the mayonnaise, lemon, green salad & oven-roasted chips
