Method

Fish

  1. 1

    Prepare the batter

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Add liquid

    Slowly pour in the cold beer (or sparkling water) while whisking to achieve a smooth batter consistency. Set aside for 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    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).

  4. 4

    Coat the fish

    Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. Dip each fillet into the batter, allowing excess batter to drip off.

  5. 5

    Fry the fish

    Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Fry for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
