Ingredients for Crispy Fried Fish Sandwich

Method

Directions for Crispy Fried Fish Sandwich

  1. 1

    Preparing the Fish

    In a bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Gradually whisk in the cold sparkling water until you have a smooth batter.

  2. 2

    Frying the Fish

    Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Dip each fish fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, and carefully place it into the hot oil. Fry for about 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Assembling the Sandwich

    Toast the sandwich buns lightly. On the bottom half of each bun, place a fried fish fillet, followed by pickles, shredded lettuce, sliced red onions, and a generous dollop of tartar sauce. Top with the other half of the bun.

  4. 4

    Serving

    Serve the sandwiches immediately while hot, with extra tartar sauce on the side if desired.
