TIPS:

Tip 1: To ensure the best meal let your cod warm up for 5 minutes before preparation. This will help the flour to stick better to the fish.
Tip 2: I'm adding two tablespoons of herbs of Provence. It compliments this fish dish well.
Tip 3: I use Wondra Flour for the flour process. This wastes only a little bit of flour and keeps it neater.
Enjoy this great recipe!
