• Thinly slice the shallot and break into individual rings (these are similar to onion rings)
• Dip into milk & seasoned flour
• Deep fry and set aside for garnish
To serve:
• Cook fish in a no stick pan for around 8-10 mins, starting skin side down, remember to season fish. Remember to cook 70% skin down & 30% skin up.
• Turn fish over and finish flesh side up
• When fish is about 3 mins from being ready start to prepare the garnish.
• Heat the creamed leeks back through.
• Place in a bowl or on a plate
• Place the cooked piece of Cod skin side up on top of the leeks.
