1 c. matzo meal or cracker crumbs
Salt, freshly ground pepper to taste
4 cod steaks
1-2 beaten eggs
Oil for frying

AVOCADO SAUCE:

1 tbsp. oil
1/4 sm. onion
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 ripe avocado
1 tbsp. fresh chopped parsley
1 tbsp. lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Season the matzo meal or cracker crumbs with salt and pepper. Dip each cod steak into beaten egg, then coat with the meal or crumbs, shaking off excess. Heat oil and fry the steaks for 3-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Drain on paper towels, keep warm.

Prepare Avocado Sauce: Heat the oil in a small pan and lightly fry the onion and garlic until soft. Scoop out flesh and mash well. Stir into the onion mixture and add the chopped parsley and lemon juice and season to taste. Heat the sauce, adding a little water if too thick. Serve the sauce hot with the fish, garnished with parsley and avocado slices dipped in lemon juice. Serves 4.
