Heat the Oil
In a deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Coat the Fish
Dip each fish fillet into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

Fry the Fish
Carefully lower the coated fish fillets into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
