Method

For the Beer Battered Fish

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the beer until the batter is smooth. Let it rest for about 15 minutes.

    Heat the Oil

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

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

    Heat the Oil

    In a separate pot or fryer, heat oil to 350°F (175°C).
