A quick, easy midweek meal, lunch or snack for young children, these salmon nuggets are tasty, full of healthy omega 3 and a hit with even the fussiest of eaters.

The cheese breadcrumbs make the nuggets extra tasty but you can leave the cheese out if preferred.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 5 minutes
Makes: 10-15 nuggets

Ingredients
2 skinned salmon fillets
2 slices bread
2oz grated cheddar cheese
4 tsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 beaten egg
2 tbsp flour
Pinch of pepper

Method

Lightly toast the bread, break up into chunks and place in a blender. Whizz the bread into breadcrumbs and then add the cheddar and Parmesan before whizzing for another minute to blend.

Cut the salmon fillets into small cubes, I usually make 5 nugget pieces per fillet.

Put the beaten egg, flour and cheese breadcrumbs into separate shallow dishes. Add a little pepper to the flour.

Roll each piece of salmon in the flour, dip and roll through the egg and then coat thouroughly in the breadcrumbs. Continue this process until each piece is coated.
