COCONUT AND LEMON FISH FINGERS
(Fish fingers noix de coco et citron)
I did this recipe many years ago when I first invited my friend’s son from the Nursery school : I had to feed a starving crowd with little time and it had to be fresh, easy and original. I do remember when one of the mothers who came to me later on asked where she could find those yummy coconut fish fingers because she wanted to purchase some… So yes, they are very popular, easy and healthy… To accompany this dish, I made a nice salad with asparagus and Parmesan… As it is perfect for adults as well, it may be a dinner dilemma in no time…
Wine pairing : Pinot gris (White) from Alsace.
