Cut the cod into 1.5 inch strips. Dip the Cod into the egg solution. Then dip the Cod into the bread crumbs (fully coat). Place the fish to the hot oil. Cook typically for 2-3 minutes depending on how thick the fish is. The bread crumbs will turn golden brown. In most cases if your sauce pan is larger you will need to rotate the fish to cook both sides.
