Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    Gradually whisk in the cold sparkling water until the batter is smooth and has a thick consistency.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 4

    Batter the Fish and Shrimp

    Dip the shrimp and haddock fillets into the batter, ensuring they are well-coated.

  5. 5

    Fry the Seafood

    Carefully place the battered shrimp and haddock into the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes for the shrimp and 6-8 minutes for the haddock.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried seafood using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
