Step by Step Method

TO MAKE THE COLESLAW


Step 1

Mix all the ingredients together in a medium bowl. Refrigerate.

TO MAKE THE FISH


Step 2

In a large saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over high heat until it reaches 350-degrees on a deep-fat thermometer. (A bread cube dropped into the oil will turn golden brown in 45 seconds.)

Step 3

Meanwhile, put the seltzer in a medium bowl. Add the fish and let soak for 10 minutes. Mix the flour and cracker crumbs in a small bowl.

Step 4

Without drying the fish, dredge it in the flour mixture and place on a plate until all the fish is coated.

Step 5

Fry in batches until golden brown, 2 - 3 minutes, turning once. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with a sprinkle of Old Bay and salt and pepper to taste.

TO ASSEMBLE THE SANDWICH


Step 6

Place a tomato slice on each of the bottom halves of the toasted buns. Cover with the fish, top with the coleslaw, and serve.

We liked this sandwich. We didn't care for the graham crackers in the crust. It worked great with the seltzer water. We used Cod which worked very well.

Absolutely wonderful fish sandwiches which we enjoyed with fruit and ice cream for dessert. Simple and good! The only change I made was with the pickles just using dill pickles and also using yellow mustard instead of dijon mustard. Great technique of soaking fish in seltzer water (we used cod) and we also loved the graham cracker crumbs (another new thing for me). Learned so much with this simple recipe which we all enjoyed. Thank you for posting!
