Crispy Salami-Crusted Cod

A savory, textured dish where salty, minced salami and toasted breadcrumbs create a flavorful golden crust for delicate cod.

Ingredients

• 2 Cod fillets
• 4 slices Salami, finely minced
• 2 slices White bread, toasted and crumbled
• 1 Egg, beaten
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Achieve a crispy texture by ensuring the bread is well-toasted before crumbling.

1. Toast the white bread until very dry and crisp, then crush it into fine breadcrumbs.
2. Mix the toasted breadcrumbs and the minced salami together in a shallow bowl.
3. Season the cod fillets on both sides with salt and pepper.
4. Dip each fillet into the beaten egg, then press firmly into the salami-breadcrumb mixture to coat both sides thoroughly.
5. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
6. Fry the cod for 3–4 minutes per side, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Serve immediately while the crust is at its maximum crunch.
