Instructions: Using kitchen scissors, cut the fish into long strips across the grain.

Season with salt and pepper.

Break the egg into a shallow bowl. Add the mixed herbs and beat with a fork. Mix in the fish strips.

Put the breadcrumbs and paprika into a plastic food bag. Add 3 or 4 strips of fish and gently shake the bag to coat the fish strips evenly.

Lay the coated strips of fish on a large plate. Repeat with the rest of the fish, just coating a few pieces at a time.

Chill the fish in the fridge for about an hour, to set the crumbs. Mix the mayonnaise and tomato ketchup together.

Heat the oil in a deep frying pan for 3 - 5 minutes. It is hot enough when a cube of bread browns in 30 seconds.

Carefully place a few strips of fish into the oil with a fish slice. Cook for 2 or 3 minutes, turning once, until golden brown.

Remove with the fish slice and drain on kitchen towels. Fry the rest of the fish, reheating the oil in between.

Serve on a plate with the lemon quarters and garnish with parsley. Serve the tomato sauce in a small dish.

NOTES : Delicious home made fish fingers with a spicy dip.
