Plaice, in breadcrumbs, baked

Plaice is a white fish, described here coated in breadcrumbs and baked. The figures are based on samples of frozen and chilled products. This preparation mainly provides protein, carbohydrate and fat. Per 100g, it contains 14g of protein, 22g of carbohydrate and 12g of fat, with an energy content of 1018 kJ.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. The breadcrumb coating contributes carbohydrate, so the nutritional composition differs from that of plain plaice. For people monitoring their salt or energy intake, both are worth noting in breaded fish products, and amounts can vary between brands. Full nutrient figures, including salt, saturated fat, vitamins and minerals, are shown in the tables below.
