Servings: 4
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Star ingredient: Sole fillets
Ingredients
4 sole fillets
1/2 cup flour
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup grated coconut
Oil for frying
1 cup diced pineapple
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 bird pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 tbsp. soy sauce
Instructions
Prepare three plates: one with flour, one with beaten eggs and one with grated coconut.
Dip each fillet of sole in the flour, then in the egg and finally in the coconut, pressing well to ensure that the breading sticks well.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the sole fillets until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
For the pineapple sauce, combine pineapple, cider vinegar, brown sugar, red pepper and soy sauce in a saucepan. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 5-10 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Serve the coconut-breaded sole fillets with the pineapple sauce.
