Nutritional values

A fruity salad with juicy fried fish fillet is just the right thing for a protein-rich dinner, especially if it is as rich in vitamins and minerals as this slightly chili-flavored variation. A good portion of the B-vitamin biotin supports the growth of skin, hair and nails.

Try out the recipe with sea fish (e.g. plaice fillets) to incorporate additional iodine and omega-3 fatty acids.
