Fish Fry Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the fish and batter

   Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, and paprika. In another bowl, beat the egg and milk together.

2. 2

   Coat the fish

   Dip each fish fillet into the egg and milk mixture, then dredge it in the flour and cornmeal mixture, ensuring it is well coated.

3. 3

   Heat the oil

   In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. It should reach about 350°F (175°C) for frying.

4. 4

   Fry the fish

   Carefully place the coated fish fillets in the hot oil. Fry them for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

5. 5

   Drain and serve

   Remove the fried fish from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
