Batter and Fish
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Prepare the batter
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the hazy beer until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Prepare the fish
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help the batter stick to the fish.
Heat the oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil reaches the right temperature.
Batter the fish
Dip each fish fillet into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
Fry the fish
Carefully place the battered fish fillets into the hot oil, cooking them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally.
Drain and serve
Once cooked, remove the fish from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve hot with chips and your favorite dipping sauce.
