Surprise Coated Crisp Fish Filets

Bergy's Note:

Recently Baby Kato published a recipe for Crusty Baked Chicken using potato flakes as the coating and I thought I'll bet this would be great on fish too. From that came this recipe. Thanks Baby Kato--I hope you try this recipe.

Very nice. Very mild. Very crispy.

This had really good flavour! Even though I used a non-stick pan and took my time, the coating didn't adhere very well to my fish - I used sole (& a chicken breast for hubby).

This was awesome. I heated a can of Italian-style chopped tomatoes and drizzled over the individual portions just before serving. My kids, who are pretty reticent about fish in general, ate two helpings each.
