- 2 Small Eggs – hard boil, peel and finely chop.
- 40 Flat Leaf Parsley Leaves – rinse, drain and finely chop.
- To taste – Sea Salt and Ground Black Pepper
- 40gm Plain Flour
- 1 Egg – crack and beat.
- 40gm Panko Breadcrumbs
- ¼ tsp Ground Paprika
- ½ Lemon – finely zest.
- To taste – Sea Salt 200gm
- White Fish Fillets (skin off) – cut into 4 x 10cm long by 5cm wide fingers.
- As required – Vegetable Oil
- 4 Brioche Slider Buns – cut in half widthways.
- 8 Baby Cos Lettuce Leaves – remove outer leaves and core, use inner leaves only, rinse and drain.

METHOD
- Place the Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar and olive oil in a mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Add the capers, gherkins, egg and parsley, then fold through to combine ingredients and season to taste. Place the sauce into a suitable container, seal the container and refrigerate until required.
- Place the flour in one mixing bowl and crack the eggs into a second mixing bowl and whisk. Add breadcrumbs, paprika and lemon zest to a third mixing bowl, mix and season to taste.
- Place each fish finger into the flour, lightly coat, then remove, shaking off any excess flour. Next, place each one into the egg mixture and lightly coat, then remove and drain off any excess egg. Finally, place each one into the breadcrumb mixture, lightly coat, then remove, shaking off any excess crumbs.
- Place a sauté pan over a moderate heat and add vegetable oil to a depth of 1cm. Once it is sufficiently hot for frying (160°C) in batches if required, carefully place the fish fingers into the oil and fry until they are a light golden brown on both sides and cooked through. Remove, drain well and place onto absorbent paper to soak up any excess oil and keep warm.
TO SERVE
Lightly toast the slider buns, then place each bun base cut side up on a work surface and lightly spread with sauce gribiche. Top each bun with two lettuce leaves and one fish finger, then lightly top with a little more sauce gribiche. Top each with a bun lid and secure with a skewer.
