Tempura Cod

Method

Tempura Cod Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Gradually whisk in cold sparkling water until you achieve a smooth batter.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

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

  3. 3

    Fry the Cod

    Dip each cod fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place fillets into the hot oil and fry for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Chipotle Mayo Preparation

  1. 4

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, lime juice, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.

Cabbage Slaw Preparation

    Combine the Slaw Ingredients

    In a large bowl, mix shredded green cabbage and carrot. Drizzle with lime juice, and season with salt and black pepper. Toss until well combined.

Salsa Fresca Preparation

    Prepare the Salsa

    In a separate bowl, combine diced tomatoes, red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Stir gently to combine.
