Plaice Goujons with homemade Tartare Sauce Recipe 25 r e c i p e Plaice Goujons with Homemade Ta rta r e S au c e This recipe is bound to become a real family favourite. INGREDIENTS Serves 2 For the Goujons: 200g skinned plaice fillets 50g plain flour Salt and black pepper 1 egg, beaten 50g white breadcrumbs vegetable oil For the Tartare Sauce: 2 egg yolks, beaten ¼ tsp English mustard powder ¼ tsp caster sugar ¼ tsp salt 2 tsp white wine vinegar 150ml sunflower oil Salt and black pepper 20g gherkins, chopped 10g capers, chopped 1 tbsp parsley, finely chopped M ETHOD To make the Goujons: 1. Slice the fillets into finger length pieces. 2. Place the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs into 3 separate bowls. Season the flour with salt and pepper. 3. Coat the goujons in flour and pat off any excess. Then dip into the egg mix and finally into the breadcrumbs until well coated. 4. Warm a non-stick frying pan over a high heat and add enough oil to cover the base of the pan - about ½ cm deep. When the oil starts to shimmer, shallow fry the goujons in the oil, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your pan. 5. Drain on kitchen paper to remove any excess oil before serving with the tartare sauce. To make the Tartare Sauce: 1. Whisk the egg yolks, dry mustard powder, sugar, salt and 1 tsp of white wine vinegar in a bowl. 2. Gradually whisk in the oil, little by little. The sauce should emulsify and thicken. Continue until a third of the oil has been incorporated. 3. Now add the rest of the white wine vinegar, followed gradually by the remaining oil. If the mayonnaise becomes too thick add a splash of warm water to loosen. 4. Season to taste and stir the chopped gherkins, capers and parsley into the mayonnaise.
