Ingredients

  • Vegetable oil spray
  • 4 large russet potatoes
  • 1 Tbs vegetable oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 cup skim milk
  • 1 Tbs vegetable oil, additional
  • 1 lb red snapper, or other fish fillets

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).
  • Spray two nonstick baking sheets with vegetable oil spray.
  • Scrub potatoes well to remove all dirt and cut out imperfections. Peeling is optional. Cut potatoes into long strips, about 1/2x1/2-inch (1x1cm) thick. Place in a bowl and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Pour 1 Tbsp (15mL) oil over the potatoes and, with your hands, distribute oil evenly all over potatoes. Place potatoes on cookie sheets in one layer. Sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake for 45 minutes, turning once or twice with a spatula to allow each side to brown.
  • Place cornmeal and milk separately into two small dishes. Season cornmeal with salt and pepper.
  • Cut fish into pieces that are approximately 2 inches (5cm) by 3 inches (8cm). Dip fish pieces into milk, then into cornmeal, making sure that all the fish is thoroughly coated.
  • Spray a nonstick skillet with vegetable oil spray. Heat oil in skillet and fry fish, 2 - 3 pieces at a time, until crust is light brown, and fish becomes opaque. Transfer fish to an oven-proof dish and place in oven to keep warm until all fish is done.
  • When potatoes are crisp and brown, remove from oven and place on a platter with fish pieces.
  • Serve with lemon slices, and ketchup, if desired.
