Healthy Fish Stix

Healthy Fish Stix

Hemp seed and ground flaxseed make these fish sticks a healthy alternative to store-bought kinds. Accompany with french fries, mayo, ketchup (upon request!), and raw veggie sticks. Makes 8 sticks.

 

Ingredients

  • 1 lb (500 g) russet potatoes, peeled, cooked, and mashed
  • ½ lb (250 g) cooked pollock
  • ½ lb (250 g) leftover white fish
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup (60 mL) finely chopped green onion
  • 1 Tbsp (15 mL) ground flaxseed
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup (125 mL) dry breadcrumbs
  • 2 Tbsp (30 mL) hemp seeds
  • 2 Tbsp (30 mL) canola oil

Directions

1. Combine the mashed potato, pollock, white fish, salt and pepper, green onion, and flaxseed in a food processor and pulse until they are combined. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Beat the eggs in another medium bowl. Combine the breadcrumbs and hemp seeds on a large plate.

2. Shape the seafood mixture into “stix,” about 4 °— 11/2 inches (10 °— 4 cm). Coat each stick with the beaten egg and then gently roll it in the breadcrumb-hemp seed mix. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Fry the fish stix until they are golden brown all over, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
