1. Break the egg into a bowl big enough to hold all the fish, and beat the egg with a fork.

2. Add the fish and make sure it all gets well coated with the egg.

3. Melt half the butter in a large, heavy skillet, dredge half the fish fillets in flour and fry over medium heat until golden brown on both sides and just cooked through.

4. Set on a plate and keep warm.

5. Melt the rest of the butter and repeat with the rest of the fish.

6. I sprinkled the fish with salt and pepper on one side while the first side was browning.
