How to Make Filet-O-Fish Sandwich (Copy Cat Recipe) | Hilah Cooking

[@kvpx05]

You're like the real life Phoebe Buffay - your subtle sense of humor is awesome!

[@imthegrinchthatstolechrist4384]

Uma Thurman

[@bluejade1212]

Yessss

[@naskabeer950]

@@bluejade1212 EXACTLY what i thought

[@AndNowThis..]

I'm so glad you're not like other cooks. You're never boring. I'll try this.

[@hollt693]

I don't think I've ever had this much fun watching a cooking video! You really crack me up. Very entertaining. And the sandwich was great too.

[@sheet-son]

You forgot to do the trademark mcdonalds move and put the cheese halfway off the sandwich and then it melts into the bread to where you can't reposition it.

[@Abirahh]

Lol yeah

[@allisonwhittaker1040]

lol :)

[@imthegrinchthatstolechrist4384]

McDonald's only uses half a slice of cheese because they think that a full slice would overpower the sandwich.

[@lastonegal6533]

You guys are too funny! You all da bomb!

[@tobybunny87]

I made these a few weeks ago and they were amaaazzinnggg. I'm about to try them again tonight. SO EXCITED I had to improvise a little because I didn't have any breadcrumbs, so I used potato starch. Still turned out super-crispy!

[@roosterdawggwoof5253]

Awesome! I suffer from Mc-fillet-o-fish cravings, but I hate going to mc-d's. Cooking is one of my main hobbies, and for years I have been trying to master the fillet-o-fish with better buns, fish, cheese, and tartar sauce to no avail. I just tried your recipe using codfish and panko breading and its the best fish sandwich I have ever had!

[@hilahcooking]

Hooray! So happy to hear that! Filet-o-fish everyday!

[@CraigArndt]

I had two of them on Ash Wednesday... I know it bad, but its soo guuuddd. I'm gonna try this, looks fantastic.

[@queretana20]

I made this on a recent snow day after seeing it on Flipboard...followed everything to letter except I fried the fish in coconut oil and used ciabatta bread. Your recipe rocks!! Can't wait to try your Chickfila recipe!!!

[@KatieCooksandCrafts]

So glad to have you back, Hilah!

[@Imasofat]

That bite had this nicest crunch to it! Want this now.

[@eternalnate]

I have to say sometimes I watch these videos just to laugh, but sometimes I try the recipes.

[@hilahcooking]

I hope you try this one. It's goooood.

[@alijanes2016]

you look just like phoebe from friends! lol

[@Anonymous07164]

lmao thats what i thought! phoebe buffay

[@Liz9628]

A.K.A Lisa Kudrow..... lol

[@jeffcook8501]

+Angel Carter I agree. She also acts alot like Phoepe with her sense of humor. I also think she looks alot like Cameron Diaz but with the perfect amount of cheek bone. Keep up the great video Hilah

[@yumengyan1520]

yes!!!! thats what i was thinking the whole time!!!!!

[@SlickA10Homepage]

Angel Carter I was thinking that too!😂

[@ShawnPlusOne]

Hilah I added dried onions to mine and it also has a taste very similar to McDonalds. I love fresh onions too. I'm picking up fresh fish this weekend to make your version and I'm drooling with anticipation.

[@JoeHeisler]

You and Chef John at foodwishes really gave me a passion for cooking, thanks for the videos!

[@shelbymsny]

These knock off recipes are so interesting to watch, I love them!!

[@MØchi3_i3]

Lol, why am I just discovering this channel? This is quality

[@Sweetysalado]

Waaaay better than McDonald's because the ones they sell are so tiny and sad.

[@hilahcooking]

They ARE tiny! I was so surprised!

[@LloydLox]

U ma´am, have one of the cutest personalities I was ever able to witness and i wanna say TY for delivering all those yummy recipes this way. I feel like watching, while I´m witya in the kitchen, we friends, u cook, I´m happy, it´s luvley!

[@tericaajohnson9404]

I always watch her videos when I'm hungry .😂

[@DoubleM761]

I MADE THIS IT WAS AMAZING... my parents were literly craving for it...thanks Hilah

[@nicolemonroe6551]

I just recently started watching you; you're awesome! I love all your recipes!!

[@RNewell504]

I can't wait to try this!!! I make the chicken fried steak a lot and that's incredible so I'm sure this is gonna be epicballs!!!

[@hilahcooking]

For real! You'll love it! :)

[@lastonegal6533]

I agree with on of your comments! You go to Burger King? I used to get fries and something else that was fried? And back at home? The fries taste just like fried apple pie and the apple pie tasted just like fries and anything that was fish? Tasted just like fries and the fish! I love your frying just the fish! I am so happy that you have a child or more? And please forget my advice I gave you in 2012! I said to NEVER get married etc. I was NOT in my right mind! I am so happy that you did the "Family Thing!" For me? That was NOT my life! And NEVER listen to anyone who tells you to cook another different way? They are all very jealous of you and your life!!!! I mean this?!? You are an awesome woman! ❤❤❤😂

[@Jmitchpen1013]

Another killer recipe from the Queen of killer recipes. Cod or Pollack work great for this.

[@Jmitchpen1013]

I forgot, I cut the cheese and add bit of lettuce. By cut the cheese, I mean leave it off, not well, you know...

[@Cookedbyjulie]

Looks great Hilah! :)

[@HotChocolateHitsOfficial]

You are so funny Hilah! This looks SO good and I am SO craving crisp fish sandwiches with tartar sauce...

[@rickwhosit7725]

So darn happy yer back and makin' your vids again! YAY! Gotta let ya know, that no matter what you are cookin', your vids brighten up my day. Since the fast food places changed what kind of oil (or whatever it is) they deep fry stuff in, I personally find it all leaves a bad chemical like after taste in my mouth, which is specially noticeable when the food has cooled down from the ride home from the take out window. So thanks for makin' this "knock off" vid Hilah! I can now make my oun fishy things!

[@chefmike9945]

Nice recipe Hilah. Your presentation is as lovely and entertaining as you are. So, I do believe that..... You are the Dish of the Filet o' Fish. Blessings ChefMike

[@Mo-rm5um]

I found this channel by accident and have watched it for 3hrs straight. Hilah is so funny. That's right, I don't have a life.

[@MrKevinramos93]

Oh My Wow! Hilah, this ought to be one of the best looking fish sandwich recipes. Thanks for this awesome recipe! Now I don't just have to go out to eat something chicken or fish every Friday. Also, good thing it's Tilapia, since it is my 2nd favorite fish after Salmon. Great job Hilah! I look forward to more delish recipes!

[@chefkendranguyen]

Your Filet o Fish looks fantastic, Hilah. Well done. :)

[@hilahcooking]

Thank you, Kendra! XO

[@CouchResistance]

Do delicious! And I love your style choice!

[@larrykimball8277]

Likin' the lighter option, although I always fry my fish like you did. Showin' off a very svelte appearance there, Hilah! Your hiatus was totally the right decision for you. There was never a reason for us to worry, right? Best to you and Chris for this new year.

[@hilahcooking]

Thank you, Larry! :) We are glad to be back and doing well. XOXO Here's to 2014 being kick-ass!

[@MightyMamin]

"No need to waste it I'll drink that later.....white russians" lol I love your senses of humor!

[@sudsp9328]

That looks fantastic. Glad it can be baked as well.

[@HeyApril_]

I absolutely love you and your videos!

[@Anonymous07164]

just found your channel yesterday and now im watching your videos. lmao i already love you, cant wait to watch all of your videos:D

[@cartoonjellyjar1]

My Mom was a teacher. She is now not with this world. But, she also would cringe, to that. I also try to speak, in a more proper manner. (Not in a fanatical way...whatever that means.) But...my Mom would be happier and I feel better. I get that, too. I'm a gay guy (meaning no hitting on you) and I super enjoy watching your videos. There's something amazing, about you. I hope you end up with the best life ever. You seem to deserve it.

[@Abirahh]

She looks like the actor from Friends

[@kaverisivaruban1483]

That One Girl kk

[@misspineapple1331]

And sounds like her too

[@TosTinMan]

Good job and sense of humor!

[@spursfan141990]

Love your attitude! Awesome video as always. :)

[@miyukipg]

My favorite fish sandwich! :D thank you for making it! Will try making it myself!!

[@johnhahn2710]

Gonna try your recipe it looks so good, oh and love your personality Hilah.....

[@IGNITEDASMR]

Missed u!!! Yay ur back :) fabulous recipe

[@lilistarlet37]

Yeay your back!!!

[@tvanbrown]

Just this weekend I was craving a fish sandwich, my only criteria was not Mickey D.s! Setlled for the red headed pig tailed girl and it wasn't much better. Can't wait to try the home made version and remember for those southerners that are not particularly liken to tarter sauces, coleslaw works great..Also, Ray Crock's answer to the Lent problem was to offer a grilled pineapple sandwich, which he loved. He challenged the franchise owner to a one weekend sell off and the fish sandwich was an overwhelming winner...and history was made! Ray continued to eat grilled pineapple sandwiches for the rest of his life, but they never made it to the menu. I happen to like them myself to this day and maybe you should give one a try!

[@hilahcooking]

Sometimes I'll make a tuna melt with a slice of pineapple on it and that is real good, too!

[@FransLegacy]

I love Hilah cooking more than my childeren

[@Precious1988M]

I've tried this recipe and my hubby loved it. So did I, of course. Thank you for sharing Hilah.

[@bluepandaman]

Love the humor in this video!

[@mabears88]

Too funny. Hilah, you make cooking fun! I tried this and it was fantastic! Thanks ;-)

[@RobinOrzo]

I met a guy at a bar one time on a drunk night and we had a conversation a out filet of fish. Was reliving the night thanks to this video which is awesome in itself. I will for sure be trying this. I do enjoy me some filet of fish (which seems to be the forgotten McDonald's sandwich) and yours looks a million times better then theirs!!

[@hilahcooking]

Damn, I wish I could have been a fly on the wall for that conversation! ;)

[@twlson49]

you go girl !! with your whole slice of cheese and your singing and your juicy fish sandwiches and cute lil face

[@pv2185]

OMG YOU ARE BACK THANK GOD HAAHA missed you and love your videos hilah wohooo!

[@fal00la]

your channel is the best. So need to give this recipe a try. Looks mucho tasty :D

[@debrad9968]

Looks really great Hilah as always....by the way, you look and sound wonderful...love your hair...so cute with those pigtails!! Keep up the good work sweetie. looking forward to more from you.

[@polykarbonx]

I grew up Catholic, so I know all about Fish Fridays during Lent. These look incredibly tasty, plus I love your shirt! :) Happy Friday!

[@shelbymsny]

I love these copy cat recipes!! More!!

[@practicalmagic9]

Filet O' Fish sammies and McD's chicken sammie are the only food I like there, but yours looks SO much tastier, Hilah!

[@Scottdon2022]

Yay hilah's back! Been waiting for a new recipe to fail at lol

[@hilahcooking]

Ha! You can do it, Scott!!! :) I have faith.

[@deview123]

That fish sandwich looks great Hilah. Love that tartar sauce. We were up in Gloucester Mass years ago. A lot of the people there work for the Gorton's fish factory where they make the fish fillets for a lot of the fast food places. Thanks. Neil

[@smd-yx6it]

I have wanted to make these at home instead of going to McDonald's & now I can. Thanks!

[@maracheno]

OMG! I love you... Now I have no reason at all to go to McDonald's... You did the McGriddle and now this! Awesome! If you could do their french fries I would marry you!

[@rboudreaux1510]

Remember: if you're trying to replicate a national chain menu item, always go for the cheapest, least expensive ingredients. That is key

[@kathynoble6177]

thank you for doing this recipe i love them at mcdonalds and your funny enjoyed the video you make cooking fun

[@SigShooter9mm]

"Moist....like a fish sandwich" Love it!

[@rboudreaux1510]

Only reason we put "capers" on the reg list "ingredients" was because we bought vinager from the cheapest source some times pickle manufacturing other times large caper manufacturing firms. We only wanted the left over vinager at 25 cents a gallon. That's that.

[@AOBxXxGAMELIFE]

wait did she say I have something on my face great its not jizz lmfao

[@ocean4view]

Just made and it turned so yummy. I added peppers, onion and garlic powder to the milk step.

[@Abbrey101]

I work at mcd;s and I agree this is way better than the so called "fish" sandwiches sold at Mcd's. I wouldn't call the ones at mcd's food at all. Nice job :)

[@thelifeofawriter]

Missed you Hilah! Welcome back.

[@hilahcooking]

Thank you, Stefanie! It's good to be back. :)

[@c.estmoi]

Omg I love it!!! I watched the cornbread jalapenos cheese video.first and you had me.at the food dance at the end ... 3 videos in you are so funny and and keep it real 🙌🎉🎊😎❤

[@poppaexo]

i love her personality

[@braaders544]

Never made anything you have cooked and I've probably watched around 100 of your videos, I've decided I'm going to either start from top to bottom or bottom to top and watch all your videos and make every single recipe. Wish me luck, I'm 14, can barely butter bread and once gave myself food poisoning.

[@hilahcooking]

Do it! Try something from my Learn to Cook playlist. They are all pretty easy! kzbin.info/aero/PL32CF922FA0F420BB

[@braaders544]

Hilah Cooking Thank you! Hopefully I don't fail. I managed to follow a recipe for your grilled cheese sandwich, admittedly, it doesn't take the most technical chef to perform this, but you should still be proud of me. ;P

[@jeffwads]

A rectangle is a type of square?? I love it.

[@skaisdead4357]

Whose ignorant enough to not like this, wtf is wrong with people this woman is hysterical and awesome

[@jacobimathews0]

the best i have ever eaten and i haven't been to McDonald's in over a year now...i feel better making food myself no matter how cheap i can get.

[@darkandlovelykg]

looks yummy, you have a great sense of humor

[@JamesGaitherJr]

Can't wait to try this!

[@wrathwraith2324]

Wow, it looks very easy to make, might try it one of these days. Can I use Pangasius, or is it better to stick to lean fish in this case?

[@gozawoz]

Hilah, would Whiting work as well as Tilapia or cod? I've not cooked much with it--bought it because it was frozen and cheap :-)

[@HeartofTarts]

Who knew you can make it with real fish? lol.

[@hilahcooking]

Ha! I know, right? :D

[@pkendall99]

Hey Stupid this is the real history of Filet-O-Fish: The sandwich was invented in 1962 by Lou Groen, a McDonald's franchise owner in Cincinnati; his store was in a predominantly Roman Catholic neighborhood, which led to falling hamburger sales on Fridays resulting from the Roman Catholic practice of abstaining from meat on Fridays. The sandwich was the first non-hamburger menu item brought in by new McDonald's company owner Ray Kroc. Kroc made a deal with Groen: they would sell two non-meat sandwiches on a Friday, Kroc's own Hula Burger (grilled pineapple with cheese on a cold bun) and the Filet-O-Fish, and whichever sold the most would be added to the permanent menu. The Filet-O-Fish "won hands down" and was added to menus throughout 1963 until reaching nationwide status in 1965.

[@Thewesrobertson]

Watching while I'm making dinner. Love the show. I know it's not like McDonald's tartar sauce but the Trader Joe's tartar sauce is the standard. Give it a try.

[@Mccleje11]

I am late finding your channel this was great!!!I I used red fish. Love your talk to self moments...

[@sarahkim6328]

Will using a different oil than the one you used affect the flavour?

[@hilahcooking]

No, at least I don't notice. You just want to use an oil with a high "smoke point" and peanut, canola, vegetable (which is usually a combo of soy and corn) all have that!

[@ilovemusic28100]

My goodness I LOVE that shirt Hilah ^.^ as well as your cooking videos, you're so creative and laid back, keep it up!

[@BallisticBBQ]

I enjoy doing knock-off vids myself! So excited ya' hadta' break into song... Hey, you should sing an entire video someday! :) Great looking Filet-O-Fish. Digg'n the hair too! Cheers!!!

[@Thaneii]

Thanks for mentioning how to bake these as an alternative to frying. Thumbs up for that.

[@iLikeySharpie]

Just came across this, and I'm definitely going to try it! I actually quite like the Fish Filet sandwich (sad, I know) but can't justify eating it because it's so unhealthy. Your recipe looks delicious. Also, you remind me so much of Phoebe Buffay from Friends! That's a compliment btw. :)

[@someoneyouknow12]

Yea count me in! Gotta try this out!!

[@wowtilly17]

Amazing - totally hilarious...though educational. Bless your soul.

[@doctorjrk43210]

Love your videos Hilah! Question, though. I know McDonald's steams their buns for the FoF (since I worked there), so for a more "accurate" bun, do you think steaming the bun in a veggie steamer would work well, or would it just get me a soggy mess?

[@hilahcooking]

Yeah, I read about that and somewhere it was suggested that you would put the whole assembled sandwich into a paper bag, fold over the top and then microwave the whole thing to get the bun to "meld" with the other stuff. I thought about using a steamer, but it just seemed like more hassle than it was worth. I don't _think_ they would disintegrate as long as they are well above the water...

[@insayndevilchild]

Yum! I hate how they skimp on the cheese, too. I'd also take the opportunity to add in some extra flavors, like garlic powder, chili powder and whatnot to the coating. Maybe even siriacha to the tartar sauce. And I'd melt the cheese a bit. And I don't know about you, but adding fries to my fish sandwich is always a must.

[@hilahcooking]

Those sound like great additions!

[@thekarenheart]

Hilah-ya make cooking so REAL-you win the day with your PERSONALIITY-your the "GODDESS"-of cooking-for real people-you wisen-himmer-SMART-ASS -CRAZY B-----LOVE YA!!!

I'm thinking that would be really good with pear slices. Great video!

[@hilahcooking]

Ooh, maybe mix some blue cheese into the tartar sauce, too? Nix the American cheese ;)
