Fish Fingers In A Crisp Potato Shell With Tomato Dipping

Directions

1. Note: cut fillets into strips 4 inches long by 1 inch wide
2. 1. Season fish fillets with salt and pepper.
3. 2. Using a mandolin or possibly a vegetable slicer, cut potatoes lengthwise into very thin slices (each potato should yield about 16 slices). In a shallow bowl, toss the potato slices with the melted butter, salt, and pepper.
4. 3. For each fish finger arrange 3 potato slices overlapping lengthwise.
5. Each slice should overlap by about 3/8-inch. Place each fish finger over a set of potato slices, perpendicular to the potatoes. Place a basil leaf over each fish finger. Fold the potato slices over the fish fingers to enclose them entirely. Chill.
6. 4. In the meantime, prepare the dipping sauce. In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, and lemon juice in a mixing bowl. Whisk the mix together. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If your kids have adventurous taste buds, add in "torn" basil leaves. Kids may enjoy tearing the basil leaves with their fingers and smelling the aroma on their hands.
7. 5. Place vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add in wrapped fish fingers and saute/fry till golden, about 3 to 5 min on each side. In another non-stick skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add in the sliced zucchini and tomatoes and saute/fry till golden.
8. Plate and serve with dipping sauce.
