EASY LIGHTLY FRIED FISH - THYME AND SPICES - MEDITERRANEAN

Steps:

• thaw the fish if frozen - rinse it under water and pat dry if you wish.
• preheat about an inch of oil in a pan.
• cut the fillets into smaller pieces if you want.
• crack the egg into a shallow bowl and beat - add a pinch of salt and pepper.
• prepare the spiced fish fry coating - mix roughly 50:50 flour:spices. I suggest adding a fair amount of salt and pepper, and also chili powder if you like it hot. ANY COMBO OF SPICES WORK, be liberal. MIX UNTIL HOMOGENOUS.
• dip the fish in egg - let the extra egg drip off (tap against the side of bowl).
• coat both sides of the egged up fish in the frying coating.
• carefully (hot oil is dangerous!) fry both sides of the fish in the oil until golden brown on both sides, and the inside of the fish is flaky and white.
• dry on paper towels lined with a bed of thyme.
• garnish with lemon wedges and thyme sprigs (optional).
