I had the Almond crusted Tilapia at a restaurant,it tasted heavenly,one of the best fish preparations I have ever had….I had to figure out a way to get the same taste at home!After some researching, I settled down with this recipe.Tastes just like the restaurant's, a sure hit with my family.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup plain, dry bread crumbs

3/4 cup almonds or your favorite nut-grind coarsely in a processor/blender

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 egg beaten or maida mixed with a little water

1/2 cup flour

4 tilapia fillets or fish of your choice

2 tablespoons oil/butter

Preparation:

Wash the fillets and pat them dry with paper towels. Sprinkle some salt over them.
Combine bread crumbs, almonds, salt and black pepper in a shallow dish.
Pour beaten eggs or corn flour mixed with water in another shallow dish.
Pour flour on a flat tray.
Dredge the fillets in the flour, then dip them in the egg or corn flour- water mixture.
Coat fillets with the almond mixture and press well. Place the fillets on a plate sprinkled with the almond mixture and chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes for the almond crust to set.
Heat one tablespoon of oil/butter in a pan .
Add fillets, cook them for about three minutes on each side until they are browned and the fish is cooked.Be sure not to over crowd the pan.
Serve with Raspberry sauce

Tips:

When making the almond,bread crumb mixture, make extra so you can store them in a box or in Ziploc bags for use at a later date.Saves a bunch of time.
Use any other fish you prefer, red snapper fillets work well in this recipe.
