Zesty salmon goujons

March 19, 2014 by Katie Bryson

Zesty salmon goujons by Katie Bryson for Parentdish.co.uk

Making your own fishfingers might sound like an ordeal, but it’s a little bit of mess and about 10 minutes of your time. For this slight inconvenience you’ll be rewarded with luxurious chunky goujons instead of the skinny minnie versions that come out of a packet when you’re knackered on a Thursday evening.

I’m a bit obsessed with limes at the moment, as you probably gathered from the coconut and lime drizzle cake, it now continues with this savoury recipe.

I zested a lime and mixed it with the mayo that forms the first coating on the fish, then zested another lime into the crispy panko breadcrumbs which are the top coat. It lends a freshness to the rich oily salmon and gets you in the mood for spring.

If you’re making your own fishfingers you can be more careful about where the fish you’re using has been sourced from and also try different types of fish too. Salmon can be expensive, so any chunky firm fish will do.

Once you’ve assembled them stick them in the fridge to cook later, or whack them straight in the oven and they’re ready in 15 minutes.

I developed this recipe for Parentdish, so if you’d like to see the full rundown on how to make it you can find the RECIPE HERE

    lovely idea Katie! We do cod goujons but now the kids do eat salmon too, this is a good way to present it!

    Love goujons of all types of fish as do all 3 of my kids. This I will certainly be trying out on them. Also love lime and think it goes particularly well with salmon. Yum!

      It’s great that your lot love fish, I hated it as a kid but will eat it about once a week now.

    We made these yesterday with trout vs salmon. Panko breadcrumbs are just the best!

      That’s a good idea to use trout Urvashi, will do that next. Panko rule… I sprinkled them on a cheesy pasta bake at the weekend and they were just so crunchy… mmmmmmm….

Beautiful little book the audience were all given Beautiful little book the audience were all given at last night’s performance of #Here from @curious.monkey_ at @northern_stage. Such a powerful performance from the talented cast bringing together individual stories of what it means to seek sanctuary in the North East, the friendships that are forged and the spark of hope that refuses to be snuffed out. With the plight of refugees so visible right now,  the timing of this performance was impeccable. #RefugeesWelcome #togetherwithrefugees🧡 #StoryCollectors
