Here fishy, fishy, fishy

Tonight I made the Mustard + Old Bay Fish Fingers from Gwyenth Paltrow's book It's All Good.
They were much better than I expected them to be. I even had to stop myself from going back for second helpings.

Of course,as usual, I didn't exactly follow her recipe to the letter. The reasons are:

1. I had so much at home that I need to use up
2. Too lazy to make a major shopping trip

Instead of Vegenaise, I used 7 packages of mayonaise that I had left over from some chicken sandwiches.  It also calls for coarse seeded mustard.  I am not sure what I is so I had some Coleman's dry mustard and used that. The breadcrumbs I used were what I had stored in the freezer. It was a little bit of this and that. There was even some Ritz cracker and challah bread crumbs in there. At my grocery store the only kind of white fish they had was catfish.

So even though, most of the ingredients are different, the fingers were delicious.  They were crunchy but the fish was still soft. The added squeeze of lemon also helped brighten up the flavors.

Since the fish was over 1 pound, I had alot of fingers leftover. They were put on a cookie sheet before baking and put in the freezer. They only take about 10 minutes to back which will make for a great quick lunch or dinner. I am sure they will come in handy soon.
