Nice and Crispy!
ingredients
- 4 medium fish fillets cod, haddock and albacore work well
- 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- vegetable oil for frying
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup cold beer you may need a little more
directions
- Mix the flour, cornstarch, paprika, and onion powder in a medium bowl until well combined. Dust each fish fillet with the flour mixture on all sides.
- Add 1 1/2" of vegetable oil to a heavy bottomed pot and heat to 330 degrees F. Line a 2 wire racks with 2 layers of paper towels each.
- Fry your Chips at this point (however you like) - and place on the rack to drain
- Add the baking powder to the flour mixture and whisk together. Then add the cold beer to the flour mixture and lightly whisk together. It's okay if there are still a few lumps, just make sure you do not overmix the batter or it will end up heavy.
- Dip the fillets in the batter and fry them in batches. Flip the fillets over with tongs when you see the edges start to turn light brown. Transfer to the second prepared rack as they finish frying.
- Increase the temperature of the oil to 375 degrees F
- Fry the fish a SECOND time at the higher temperature until golden brown. Drain on a rack. Serve the fish with lemon wedges or vinegar... and Chips of course :)
- You can also fry your Chips a second time if you like them crispier
