Cod Burger with Apple

Published on 19 February 2025 at 20:02

We really enjoy our flaky cod fillet burger. With a crisp sweet appley taste and a soft airy bun. The lemon zest adds a little zing. This  fried treat can be tucked away in a matter of minutes... literally!

Ingredients

For the apple sauce

Instructions

  • Mix your breadcrumbs in a bowl with lemon zest and smoked sea salt and black pepper.
  • Prepare your cod fillets by coating in flour and then dipping in beaten egg. Next coat in the panko breadcrumbs.
  • Leave to one side whilst you make an apple sauce.
  • For the apple sauce, peel and chop and place into a saucepan. Simmer for 20 mins in the cider vinegar until the apple softens.
  • Sprinkle over some sugar and remove from the heat, allow to cool.
  • Cook the cod in hot oil for 3-4 mins on each side. The breadcrumb should be golden brown.
  • Drain off excess oil on a sheet of kitchen roll. Toast your bread roll and spread the base with some mayonaisse. 
  • Place on some lettuce. Add your crispy cod fillet and a generous spoonful of apple sauce. 
  • Serve with 2 granary baps and fries or salad
