Method
For the Fish
Prepare the batter
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the cold sparkling water until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
Batter the fish
Dip each fish fillet into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off.
Fry the fish
Carefully lower the battered fish into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Fry for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
