Method
For the Fish
- 1
Prepare the Batter
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add the cold sparkling water until the mixture is smooth and slightly thick.
- 2
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 3
Coat and Fry the Fish
Dip each cod fillet into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove the fish and drain on paper towels.
