Preparation
- Step 1
Pat the herring very dry with paper towels.
- Step 2
Beat the eggs in a wide shallow bowl. In another bowl, stir together the bread crumbs and black pepper, to taste.
- Step 3
Pour the oil into a large frying pan, until it is 1 inch deep. Over medium heat, bring the oil to 375 degrees.
- Step 4
When the oil is hot, dip both sides of the herring in the egg and then the bread crumbs, making sure that it is entirely covered.
- Step 5
Carefully place the fillets in the oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan, and fry them for 45 seconds to a minute, until they are golden brown.
- Step 6
Drain and serve immediately, topped with a sprinkling of red onion, tomato and cucumber.
