I'm an 80-y-o Yank and I've been frying skinless cod like this all my life. One added step, though. After the egg wash, dip the fish in a seasoned bit of bread crumbs. The coating will be crunchy and the taste is stupendous. Enjoy.

Hi Ed...sounds like a great idea! I also use different flour for flavor. Try coconut flour for a bit of that tropical flavor! That with the lemon (or seafood seasoning) and this method is out of this world! Thank you for sharing!
THIS IS WITHOUT DOUBT THE FINEST WAY I HAVE EVER COOKED FRIED COD AND AT 77 I WISH I HAD DONE IT 60 YEARS AGO ,ABSOLUTELY 1ST CLASS AND I AM A CARPENTER,NOTHING FLASH BOG STANDARD TESCO COD LOINS.NO EGG TASTE AT ALL. THANKS A MILLION . YOU ARE THE MASTER FRYER. ALL THE BEST TONY T. KEEP A GOOD LIGHT
Hi Scott, I'm 55 in a weeks time and after all these years, I decided to start learning to cook about 3 weeks ago. I really am a complete beginner Scott and I started cooking baby potatoes, corn on the cob and fresh carrots in a steamer and the taste was really lovely, but I also tried cooking salmon in the steamer as well, but found it very dry and boring. Two nights ago, I tried to duplicate with cod what you are superbly teaching here and because your explanations were so so brilliant, I ended up with a meal, where the cod was absolutely jaw droppingly tasteful. moist and I loved it sooooo much! I did struggle to remove the skin 100 percent, but when I took a mouthful of that cod, god, I suddenly realised that I really can learn to cook, if I have excellent teachers like yourself showing me the way. Scott, I want to thank you millions for sharing your skills and although I sliced the top of my thumb off a few nights ago with a carving knife trying to chop parsley (told you I was a complete beginner - 4 stitches later), you have instilled in me so much belief, that I CAN cook! Tonight, I also tracked down your other video, cooking cod with the skin on and found that it tasted even better, (if that is at all possible). I think this is because I never squeezed so much lemon this time, but I guess that’s a personal preference. Scott, I owe you big time mate, I really do. Many thanks, Terry
never too late man! my dad is in his 70s and still can only cook hockey puck hamburgers on the grill. that is what we called them back in the day. i love cooking and nothing is better for your health. except raw fruits and veggies but that can get boring real quick.
Terry i hope you don't ever eat Bass lol. for salmon, all i do is cook it in a pan with olive oil. but put "Salmon Magic from Chef Prudhomme" on it. you can find that seasoning pretty easily in most stores or online. seriously, that is all you need. i love cooking, just an amateur, but i make great food. i hope u follow through and do it. you can add it to any fish really but so good with salmon. add seasoning to fish, rub it in. then add a bit of oil to fish or pan so it doesn't stick too bad. cook 3-5 minutes per side. so easy and the best!!!! if you like chicken and want to save money, buy thighs. same situation.......add seasoning like "montreal seasoning" and pan cook. cooking is so easy and really important so you are healthy. eat as much raw veggies as possible. cooking veggies kills a lot of nutrients and enzymes. salads all the time!! ok i stop blabbing
I have cooked my cod twice now this way. So Good. Will never go back to my old way(sorry Grandma). Have my cod getting ready to do this again. Can't wait, so good. Thank you.
I am from New-England in the States. I grew up on the coast, Massachusetts, Salem, Essex, Gloucester. I also lived in England, Suffolk, for a year and a half. I know and love good fish. This is the best pan-fried method to cook Cod I have ever tried. My wife and I will have it no other way now ! Brilliant!
I’m so excited to see a 12 year old enjoying this simple recipe! My 12 year old asked me to make cod and out of all the recipes on RUclips, I’ve decided to go with this one! Mainly because I’m just getting the hang of decent cooking and grilling, and because most of the cod recipes encourage a lot of seasoning, herbs and spices, but my 12 yr old and I prefer the natural flavor of fish and steak without heavy seasoning! Plus, this recipe will allow able to break in my new nontoxic chemical free Caraway frying pan! Can’t wait! 😋👏🏼
Thank you so very much for this video. I am 64 a couple days ago and because of you, just learned to cook the best tasting cod. I hope you make more videos. You have a great presentation. Thank you from California
Cooked this recipe tonight, have to say it was the best piece of cod i have ever tasted. It cooked to perfection in 7 mins, and not a hint of egg. Thank you so much for sharing.
I've never made cod before and this was absolutely amazing! I served it up with some pan fried potatos with shallots and chives. I'll be making this every week now I'm sure.
I cooked this for my wife and she was amazed. First time cooking it and I followed your simple steps. Thanks, It's definitely going in my menu rotation.
These cooking videos of Scott Rea’s should be put into the British National Archive. It’s good authentic English cooking, and it tastes amazing no matter where you’re from. Love the trick with the flour, that’s new for me:)
Only saw this earlier in the week and tried it tonight... it really is sensationally good! The missus loved it too and gave it a 10/10. Nice one Scott 👍
I just tried your recipe and the cod fillets turned out perfect. I did add some fresh dill to the flour to give it a little extra flavor. I'm going to make fish more often. Thank you!
After 50 years of wondering and once trying the egg on BEFORE the flour I have just today learnt jow to do it properly,!!!THANK YOU SO MUCH for this enlightening video....(.and the entertaining subtitles!!)I 'll be looking at more of your tips for sure!!!
I tried this recipe and the fish was outstanding! Thank you so much for posting this video sir. My wife asked me to cook this dish, over and over again with extra lemon and butter sauce and it's a big hit every time. Thanks again for the wonderful recipe.
I coat my cod loin with seasoned flour, put it in a cast iron skillet with butter and olive oil, fry at medium for 2 minutes on each side, then place the skillet of loin in the oven at 350 F for appx. 7 minutes, i have never had a problem with the loin falling apart.
I was set to make beer battered cod until I realized I forgot the beer so I tried this instead and it was absolutely delicious. The egg and light dusting of flour basically formed a cocoon that made it extra tasty and looked great too. Thanks for the video!
I am 61 and I want to say a big thank you for the recipe I can tell you it was the nicest piece of smoked cod I've ever tasted. Will be trying to use same method for monk fish and haddock I'm sure it will be as good glad to have seen this video.
Cod in heaven. I am not the biggest Cod fan, but after trying your recipe and tip for keeping it in one piece, I have been converted and seen the light. It flaked as it should but the flakes stayed in one piece and it was moist all the way through...Superb! Cheers, Simon.
I just cooked my cod for supper and it was the best I have ever tasted, better than most fish n chips shops. However I didn't have lemon am sure it will hv tasted even better. Thank you Scott my family enjoyed your recipe.
I felt the skin on the a cod but,still cooked it like this! It was Magnificent . I used Cornflower because that's all I had. You never tasted the egg. Good trick Thank You!
I’ve been professional chef nearly 50 years now and had to try this at home for my wife! Wow , despite the cod being thicker then yours and leaving skin on which took slightly longer then 7 minutes. It was amazing, especially the lemon juice and butter basting , thanks for the inspiration 🙌
I had already put blackened fish seasoning on my cod when I found this video, but I did the flour and egg coating over it and pan fried it just lile you did. Turned out awesome! Thanks for this. :)
Hello Scott, I was wanting something different for dinner and I stumbled across your channel. I couldn't stop watching! Next thing I knew I was headed to the grocery store. It was easy and tasted AMAZING!!! My wife couldn't stop eating it. Thank you for sharing... I am sure to be a follower of yours. As an earlier comment stated "a healthier alternative to Fish-n-Chips".
I have lived next to the western shoreline of Lake Michigan for decades, where Friday night fish frys of fresh lake perch were the norm at every little restaurant, most places almost always dipped the filets in heavy batter before frying. I stopped eating breaded fish back in the early eighties. I had a taste for fried fish today instead of broiled, this method turned out excellent, just a light crust on the very outside, I could taste the delicate fish, not breading, perfect. Thanks.
That flour trick is pretty traditional in my experience. I have a cod fillet. I will try your recipe. Salt, pepper, lemon; all staples. I look forward to it!
I made cod twice today, very hot (210-220c) oiled pan and just before frying I covered it in tropics special fry mix. No sticking at all, the moisture kept the flour binded well.
Thanks! I'm cooking cod for the 1st time tonight. I usually dip my fish in egg first then flour but I'm trying your way tonight. Thanks for sharing the video :)
My Mother was from NFLD. This is similar to how she fried her delicious Cod just minus the butter. I could never make it like she did- never was like hers. Haven’t tried in years to make it but because my daughter misses this dish so much and would like to teach her daughter I’ll be giving it another try! 🙂 Thank you for your video!
Perfect:) I have 2 package of fillets (all slim), have never seen the egg wash after the dusting. As Rod used to sing "tonight's the night". Great video, great presentation, awesome piece of fresh cod:) Heaven. Nice post, thanks.
Cod is a delicate flavor that does NOT need to be destroyed by cajun seasoning. Save that stuff for your rice, something that doesn't have that much flavor, and enjoy the cod for what it is!
@@a.barnard3205 There are many cuisines in the world which heavily season white fish. Try fish in an Indian restaurant and you might realise a change is nice sometimes
I made this recipe a couple weeks ago and it was great! Tonight I'm gonna try using panko breading after the egg wash for my wife who prefers a bit of a crunch. I also add a couple of lemon halves to the pan after turning the fish and let them fry, they make a nice garnish.
Thanks Richard much appreciated mate,people are loving this technique,as you have found out,just one thing,could you taste the egg?,its genius,many thanks .Scott
I’m from Boston. The land of the Bean and the Cod. By far and wide the most important food fish on earth. I’m gonna try this recipe! My mother would dip ground fish fillets (haddock, cod, flounder) in flour and egg, then fry. What she didn’t do was use butter and lemon after. She just fried it in canola oil, not pan sear. Looking forward to trying your recipe. Thank you.
This is exactly how I cook cod and it does work very well. The key is like he said though... You gotta leave it alone while it cooks. If you gotta check it wait at least a minute before lifting it up if you are using med/high heat. Nice Video!
I'm an 80-y-o Yank and I've been frying skinless cod like this all my life. One added step, though. After the egg wash, dip the fish in a seasoned bit of bread crumbs. The coating will be crunchy and the taste is stupendous. Enjoy.

Just tried it without egg. Still works greatly. Thank you so much!
I also just prepared it without the egg and it came out great! The flour is a must though.
Just cooked it Usually hate cooking fish as I always over cook it , but that was brilliant absolute perfection Thank you

We've been cooking our cod in NL like this since the start of time! 😊
BRAVO! Cooking this tonight with a Rice side. Thank you!
oh and a bit of Cajun seasoning makes it even better 😉
Prudhomme's Seafood Magic is the secret. available in most stores now because it kicks so much ass.
will try that next
Cod is a delicate flavor that does NOT need to be destroyed by cajun seasoning.
Save that stuff for your rice, something that doesn't have that much flavor, and enjoy the cod for what it is!
