It is a perfect choice for a family dinner or to impress friends at a special meal, without the need for frying. Let's get to work! Preparation time: 15 minutes Baking time: 30 minutes Total time: 45 minutes Servings: 4 Ingredients: - 500 g pangasius fillet (fresh or frozen) - 4 eggs - Salt and pepper (or Delicat, to taste) - 150 g breadcrumbs - 100 g flour - 500 g potatoes - 300 g tomato sauce - 1 teaspoon sugar - 2 cloves garlic - 1 teaspoon flour (for the sauce) - 1 tablespoon olive oil (for the mash) Preparation steps: 1. Preparing the pangasius fillets: Start by seasoning the pangasius fillets with salt and pepper on both sides. This will add a pleasant flavor to every bite. If you want to give them an even more interesting taste, you can also add dried herbs, such as oregano or basil. 2. Breading: Prepare three separate bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs (you can add a pinch of salt to the eggs), and one with breadcrumbs. Then, take each pangasius fillet, first coat it in flour, ensuring it is evenly covered, then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. This breading technique will give the crust a golden and crispy appearance. 3. Baking: Line a baking tray with parchment paper and place the breaded pangasius fillets on the tray, leaving a little space between them for even cooking. Preheat the oven to 180°C and bake the fillets for about 30 minutes or until the breadcrumbs turn golden and crispy. I recommend flipping the fillets halfway through the baking time to ensure they brown evenly. 4. Preparing the mash: Meanwhile, peel and cut the potatoes into cubes. Boil them in a pot of water with a tablespoon of olive oil until they become soft. Once boiled, drain them and mash them with a potato masher or fork, gradually adding milk or butter, as preferred, to achieve a creamy texture. 5. Preparing the tomato sauce: In a small saucepan, heat the tomato sauce, adding salt, sugar, and crushed garlic. The latter will give an intense and aromatic flavor to the sauce. Once the sauce begins to boil, add a teaspoon of flour mixed with a little water to thicken the sauce. Mix well to avoid lumps. 6. Assembly and serving: Once the pangasius fillets are ready, take them out of the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve the fillets on a bed of mashed potatoes, generously drizzled with tomato sauce. You can also add a few fresh basil leaves for an extra touch of flavor and color. Tips and useful advice: - If you don't have pangasius fillets, you can also use other types of fish, such as cod or tilapia. - For a healthier option, you can bake the fillets with a drizzle of olive oil instead of breading them. - The tomato sauce can be replaced with a yogurt sauce or tartar sauce if you want a different twist. - Instead of mashed potatoes, you can choose a cauliflower or carrot mash for a lower-calorie alternative. Nutritional benefits: Pangasius fillet is an excellent source of protein, being low in fat, making it ideal for a balanced diet. Potatoes are a good source of complex carbohydrates, providing energy, while tomato sauce brings antioxidants, such as lycopene, beneficial for heart health. Frequently asked questions: - Can I use frozen fish fillets? Yes, make sure to completely thaw them before preparing. - What can I do with leftovers? You can turn leftovers into a delicious sandwich for lunch or incorporate them into a salad. - How can I store the breaded pangasius fillets? Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge and consume within 1-2 days.
