Make your own tartare sauce Mix a good-quality mayonnaise (we like Delouis Fils, from Sainsbury's and Waitrose) with a little Dijon mustard, lemon juice, chopped parsley, drained and rinsed capers and chopped gherkins.
Method
Mix the Parmesan and breadcrumbs and put in a shallow bowl. Put the flour in another bowl and the eggs in another. Sprinkle salt over the fish then dip in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs, shaking off the excess as you go.
Heat a frying pan with a generous amount of sunflower oil and fry the fish fingers for 2 to 3 minutes. If freezing, fry for 1 minute, cool, freeze and reheat in a 200 C, 180 C fan, 400 F, gas 6 oven for 10 minutes.
Spread each ciabatta half with tartare sauce. Top with lettuce and fish fingers; serve with gherkins and lemon wedges.
