Cod and green pepper sandwich
Instructions:
- Pour a little of the oil into a frying pan and add the peppers.
- Fry until they are soft and well browned on both sides.
- Season with a little salt to taste, then transfer the peppers to kitchen towels to absorb the excess oil.
- Cut the cod into thick slices about 41⁄2 oz each, being careful to remove bones.
- Season the fish with the salt.
- Put the flour onto a plate and coat the fish. Heat the remaining oil in a pan.
- Pat the excess flour off the fish.
- Beat the egg, then dip a piece of the floured cod into it. Let the excess drip away.
- Repeat with all the pieces.
- Carefully add the fish to the oil and fry for about 1 minute, turning half way through, until golden on both sides and juicy in the middle.
- Lift the fried cod from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel. Preheat the broiler or oven to high.
- Spread the bread over a baking sheet.
- Toast the bread under the broiler or in the oven until golden on both sides.
- To assemble the sandwich, top the toast with a green pepper followed by a piece of fried cod.
- Serve with the mayonnaise.
