1.Place breadcrumbs and eggs in separate bowls. Heat half the butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. While it melts, dip whiting fillets first in egg, then breadcrumbs. In batches, gently place fillets in pan and cook, turning occasionally, until golden and cooked through (5-6 minutes). Drain on absorbent paper and keep warm in a low oven.

2.For ravigote sauce, combine ingredients in a bowl, season to taste and stir. Serve spooned over whiting fillets with asparagus or salad to the side and lemon for squeezing.
