Herb Crusted Fish Fillets - cooking recipe

Ingredients

750 g fish fillets (blue-eye cod skin on was recommended)
1/3 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup basil leaves
1/2 cup flat leaf parsley
2 tablespoons thyme leaves
2 cups fresh breadcrumbs (I used wholemeal bread crusts cut off)
1/3 cup plain flour
2 eggs (lightly beaten)
vegetable oil (for cooking)

Preparation

Place pine nuts, oats and herbs in a food processor, process until finely chopped, add breadcrumbs and process to combine.
Transfer some of the breadcrumb mixture to a shallow plate.
Place flour and eggs in separate shallow bowls.
Preheat oven to 180 degree celsius.
Coat fish in flour, dip in egg, then coat in breadcrumb mixture, pressing crumbs on with fingertips to secure (top up breadcrumbs as required).
Pour enough oil to cover the base of a large non-stick frying pan, heat over medium heat until hot.
Cook fish for about 3 minutes each side (in batches if necessary - don't over crowd frypan) or until golden.
Transfer to a wire rack over a baking tray.
Place in oven and cook for 10 minutes or until fish is cooked through.
Keep checking the fish, cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
