The honey and parmesan cheese makes this wonderfully crunchy crust brown very quickly. Finishing the cooking process in the oven keeps the fish super-succulent.

3 eggs, beaten
Flour
Oil to Fry
Crust:
1 cup slivered almonds
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind
2 tablespoons capers, well drained
1 cup dry grated parmesan cheese
2 cups bread crumbs

2 tablespoons chopped parsley
2 teaspoons dried thyme

* Mix liquid into dry ingredients until well combined
* Shake fish in flour and dip into beaten eggs.
* Press coating firmly onto fillets. Refrigerate till required.
