Ingredients

– 6 eggs

– ΒΌ cup mayonnaise

– 1 teaspoon curry powder

– Salt and pepper to taste

– 600 grams firm white fish fillets for lean protein and omega-3s

– ΒΌ cup milk

– ΒΎ cup plain flour for coating

– 2Β½ cups panko crumbs for coating

– 3 teaspoons garlic powder for coating

– Cooking oil spray

– 4 burger rolls split and toasted

– Tartare sauce

– Mini cos lettuce

– Air-fryer chips

Instructions

1-Getting started: with this Air Fryer Kids Fish Finger Burger is straightforward and fun. Begin by hard boiling 3 of the eggs for 7 minutes, then chop them finely and mix with ΒΌ cup mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon curry powder, salt, and pepper to make an egg salad. Refrigerate this mixture to let the flavors meld while you prepare the fish. Next, cut the 600 grams of firm white fish fillets into pieces that are 3 cm thick and 10-12 cm long for even cooking.

2-Whisk the remaining 3 eggs with ΒΌ cup milk to create an egg wash. Coat each fish piece first in the ΒΎ cup plain flour seasoned with salt and pepper, then dip it into the egg wash, and finally press it into a mixture of 2Β½ cups panko crumbs and 3 teaspoons garlic powder. For extra crunch, repeat this coating process to create a double layer, ensuring the fish fingers turn out golden and crisp.

3-Spray the air fryer basket with cooking oil spray and place 8 fish fingers in a single layer. Cook them at 200Β°C for 5 minutes, then turn and spray again before cooking for another 5-6 minutes until they’re golden and crisp. While the fish cooks, toast the 4 burger rolls. To assemble, spread tartare sauce on the buns, add mini cos lettuce, two fish fingers, and the egg salad, then top with the bun lid. Serve with air-fryer chips and optional coleslaw for a complete meal that takes about 20 minutes to prepare and 30 minutes to cook.
