Coat the Haddock
Dip each haddock fillet first into the dry batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Then, dip it into the wet mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, return the fillet to the dry batter for a second coating.

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