Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 can Heart of palm Rinse and slice into strips
  • 1 cup Flour Basic pantry staple for coating
  • 1-2 tablespoons Kelp granules Adds a fishy flavor
  • 1 cup Unsweetened non-dairy milk Almond, soy or oat milk works well
  • to taste Fish fry mix Choose pre-seasoned for more flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by draining and rinsing your heart of palm. Slice each piece gently into strips resembling fish fillets.
  2. In a bowl, combine about a cup of flour with a tablespoon or two of kelp granules. Whisk together.
  3. Pour the unsweetened non-dairy milk into another bowl. Dip each heart of palm strip into the milk.
Coating
  1. Take each milk-dipped strip and coat it in the flour mixture. Shake off any excess flour.
Frying
  1. Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a pan over medium heat until shimmering.
  2. Gently add the coated strips to the pan and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
Serving
  1. Plate your vegan fried fish with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy.

Notes

For best results, ensure your oil is hot before frying and consider double coating for extra crunch. You can store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze uncooked strips for a month.
