Why This Recipe Works

This dish combines a perfectly flaky, golden crust with tender fish inside, paired with crispy, golden chips. It’s a comforting and satisfying meal that brings a classic favorite to your table with ease.

Cooking Advice

- Pat the fish dry before battering to help the coating stick better.
- Use oil heated to the right temperature to ensure the batter cooks evenly and stays crispy.
- Soak the potatoes in cold water before frying to remove excess starch for extra crispiness.

Step 1

Gently heat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and give it a quick spray with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, mix together the yogurt, green onions, lime juice, half a teaspoon of salt, and a quarter teaspoon of pepper. Stir in the coleslaw, cover the bowl, and pop it in the fridge to chill for about an hour.

Step 2

Spread the sweet potatoes out on the prepared pan, drizzle with a tablespoon of oil, then sprinkle chili powder and a pinch of salt over them. Toss everything so the potatoes are well coated, then bake them for 20 to 25 minutes until they’re tender and nicely browned.

Step 3

While the potatoes are cooking, rinse your fish fillets and pat them dry with paper towels. In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg and water. In another dish, mix the cereal crumbs with the remaining salt and pepper. Dip each piece of fish first into the egg mixture, letting any extra drip off, then coat them in the cereal mixture.

Step 4

Heat the last tablespoon of oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish and cook for about 3 minutes until the bottom is golden. Flip the fillets, then transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake for around 15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve the crispy fish alongside the sweet potatoes and chilled slaw for a delicious, comforting meal.

Best Foods To Serve With This

Serve with a wedge of lemon and a side of tartar sauce or mushy peas. A fresh green salad or coleslaw also pairs well to balance the richness of the fried fish and chips.

Leftover Care Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat in the oven to keep the coating crispy rather than using a microwave, which can make it soggy.
