- 4 oz dill pickle spears

Method
Thaw the cod fully and pat very dry. Cut into four bun-size pieces and season with salt.

Set out flour, beaten eggs, and panko. Coat each fillet in order, pressing the panko on well.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high and fry the fish 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden and crisp. Drain on a rack.
Toast the buns and spread both sides with tartar sauce.
Build the sandwiches with shredded lettuce under the fish and a squeeze of lemon on top.
