Hey last week I went to bob Evans and got the potato crusted flounder. It was very good.

I don't know what to coat my flounder with though. It doesn't have to be potato crusted. I have plain corn flake cereal,but could I use that crushed??

I want to put it in a skillet with a nice brown coating. I have 100% olive oil also. I want a thin coating of crust.

I wish I had wheat flour:( and I don't wanna use white flour..

Any recipes/tips for me?

Thanks:)

    Corn flakes will definitely work. egg wash the fish first with egg whites so it sticks better and the more you crunch up the ceral the better it will be. I also use this on chicken when I'm wanting fried chicken =)


    Also Ive used dried coconut in the cereal to give it some extra flavor ....

    Yep, I have a chicken parmagiana recipe that uses crushed corn flakes instead of bread crumbs. You dip the chicken in flour and salt/pepper, then dip in egg whites, then dip in corn flakes. It's not super crispy, but it does have a nice flavor.

    edit to add: my recipe calls for baking, I don't know how it would work with pan saute.

    you can crush almonds/other nuts and coat in that, or coat in cornmeal (plus some spices), or coat with breadcrumbs ( + spices)...all taste good :)

    Wheat germ is always an option. I use wheat germ a lot with fish.
