Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb white fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup cornmeal

  • Oil for frying
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage

  2. Dip the fish fillets in the flour mixture, then in the beaten eggs, and finally in cornmeal.
  3. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry the fish until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
