Ingredients
- 1 large pike fillet
- ½ cup of wild rice flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 3 to 4 bunches of radishes
- Fine sea salt, to taste
- Freshly cracked pepper
- 2 to 3 tbs. olive oil
- Lemon wedges
Instructions
- Clean and trim radishes. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook radishes until tender (smash-able), about 30-40 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 450° Fahrenheit. Line a large, rimmed cookie sheet(s) with foil. Lightly coat with olive oil and lay cooked radishes in one layer. Smash each radish with a measuring cup or something similar. Coat the top with oil. Bake in the oven until browned at the edges, about 20 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
- Cut fish into four portions and season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350° Fahrenheit for deep frying. Meanwhile, pour wild rice flour in a dish. In wide bowl, beat 1 egg until thinned and slightly bubbling. Lightly coat fish with wild rice flour, and then dip into the egg and then coat in the wild rice flour again.
- Fry coated fish until crispy in hot oil, carefully flipping halfway through. Drain and season with fine sea salt. Serve with lemon wedges, roasted radishes and your favorite sides.
