Cod fillets come coated in a crispy breadcrumb shell, so you get flaky fish inside and a dry, crunchy exterior outside. Sold frozen, they’re usually baked in the oven from chilled or frozen, depending on the pack instructions, and they sit in M&S’s frozen fish range alongside battered and plain fillets. Compared with plain cod, the breadcrumb coating adds texture without changing the centre much, so it’s more about structure than seasoning. Served with chips, peas, or tucked into a sandwich, it’s a straightforward freezer staple built around fish and crumbs.
