Glad you Liked it Jeanie! Your meal looks fantastic as usual :hail::hail:
I use a 50/50 mix of Zatarain's lemon pepper fish fri and either Frosted Flakes or Cap'n crunch cereal. They taste the same
Smash up the cereal, ( it does not have to be put in a food processor)
The 1 gallon container from Sam's club is about $6, 2 boxes of Cap'n crunch/1 dbl box of frosted flakes makes a giant batch and is the 50/50 mix I make, stores very well in containers or ziplocks.
Add cayenne pepper to taste, approx: 1Tbl to 4 cups of the mix
I soak the fillets overnight in heavy cream or 1/2 & 1/2 in a zip lock bag.
Whip 3 eggs depending on how much fillets you have. I use 3 eggs for a ¾ full zip lock gallon bag. Mix the hvy cream, fillets,eggs into bowl. coat fish, put coated fillets into ziplock bag and place in fridge for at least 30 minutes as the batter will stick much better(and not end up in the pan/fryer). Fry in clarified cooking oil at 375 degs.
Adjust to how ever you like it. I've tried changing it many many times over 30+ yrs, but everyone wants it left alone!
Yeah some 30+ yrs ago neighbors decided to do another block party and I was to fry some walleye (again). I did not have any of my usual breading for frying. I had bought the Zatarain's lemon pepper fri prior to try at some point, which is sold to be a wet batter. But I'm not a fan of wet batter. I had frosted flakes on hand and figured the lemon part was good for most folks who use lemon on their fish. The sweetness of the frosted flakes would be good for the multitude of kids and that is how I happened to come up with it. It has been a hit ever since. Those that like fried fish, with this mixture do not require/want tater sauce. Very surprising how many folks who do not like fish, love my fried walleye, they call it the "other white meat". :twitch:Man who woulda thunk Frosted Flakes and fish are a winning combination.
