Ingredients
4 tbsp plain flour
1 egg, beaten
40g/1½oz cornflakes, crushed
2 skinless cod fillets (about 150g/5oz)
Salt and pepper
1 egg, beaten
40g/1½oz cornflakes, crushed
2 skinless cod fillets (about 150g/5oz)

Sweet Potato Chips
3 sweet potatoes, cut into wedges
2 tbsp sunflower oil
2 tbsp sunflower oil
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas 6 and line 2 baking sheets with baking parchment.
- Put the flour in a bowl, the beaten egg in another bowl and the crushed cornflakes in a third bowl.
- Season the cod with a little salt and pepper and coat each fillet in the flour, then the egg, then the crushed cornflakes. Arrange the coated fillets on one of the lined baking sheets.
- Toss the sweet potato wedges with the oil, season lightly with
salt and pepper and spread them out on the second lined
baking sheet. Put the sweet potato chips in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, turning the chips halfway through the cooking time. When you turn the chips, add the fish to the oven and bake for 15 minutes until golden and cooked through. - Remove the chips and baked cod from the oven and serve straight away, with the cod wrapped in paper cones if you wish.
