Ale Battered Fish

Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the batter

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add the ale while stirring until the batter is smooth and thick.

  2. 2

    Heat the oil

    In a deep frying pan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Batter the fish

    Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels. Dip each fillet into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

  4. 4

    Fry the fish

    Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
