The fast fix ...fishfingers

This “fast fix” has been passed on many times over the years. If you are lover of salt and vinegar on fishfingers it makes them perfect for spreading on a submarine roll. The first step is the fishfingers are microwaved. See Guidance Notes below. Quick, easy and another candidate for a late night snack.

Easy to make in minutes and easier still on the budget!

The ultimate fishfinger sub

1 x submarine roll

tartare sauce or mayo

tomato ketchup

4 fishfingers

Salt and vinegar

2 x cheese slices

Assembly

Spread one half of the sub with tartare sauce or mayo and the other with ketchup.

Microwave the fishfingers, break them up, add salt and vinegar. Place on the bottom of the submarine roll, add two cheese slices, complete the sub by adding the top half – ensure you are armed with kitchen roll – devour.

Guidance Notes

You can buy fishfingers as cheaply as £1 for 10 – total

weight 250g i.e. 25g per fishfinger. There are larger

ones out there

A microwave container – without the lid – is ideal

for cooking

Based on 4 x 25g fishfingers microwave on medium

for 1 minute, then turn, repeat and then a final 1 minute

total cooking time of 3 minutes

If your fishfingers are larger then adjust your timing

accordingly at 1 minute intervals and test with a fork

to see that the fish is white and cooked thoroughly

I did try and warn you that this would not be pretty from our point of view – what we have to grasp is that this is life but not as we know it!
