Step 1
Peel and chop the 4 potatoes into chunks. Boil in salted water until fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 2
While potatoes cook, set up three shallow bowls: 0.5 cup flour, 2 beaten eggs, and 1 cup breadcrumbs.
Step 3
Pat the 4 fish fillets dry. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Dredge each fillet in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs, pressing gently to coat.
Step 5
Heat 3 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook fillets in a single layer until golden and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Step 6
Drain potatoes, then mash with 2 tbsp butter and salt to taste. Add a splash of milk if needed for creaminess.
Step 7
Serve fish with mashed potatoes and a lemon wedge for squeezing over.
