This was my mom's favorite drink when I was younger. I remember my uncle making these for her and I always asked her for the maraschino cherry. Found the recipe on a popular mix drink website.

Crispy Beer Batter Fish & Chips image

Virtually every beer-battered fish recipe looks crispy coming out of the fryer, and some even stay crispy for a few minutes, but then the inevitable sogginess sets in. Well, with this simple formula, and a few easy tricks, you can achieve a fried fish where the last bite is as crisp as the first. The keys are keeping your batter really cold and patting your fish really dry. Serve over a bed of salt 'n vinegar chips with tartar sauce and lemon.

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup self-rising flour
2 tablespoons rice flour
¼ teaspoon baking powder
4 (6 ounce) cod fillets, fully thawed if frozen
2 tablespoons rice flour, or as needed
salt to taste
1 cup lager-style beer, or more as needed
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Whisk self-rising flour, rice flour, and baking powder together in a bowl. Freeze until ready to use.
  • Pat fish as dry as possible. Cut pieces lengthwise to get eight 1-inch thick strips. Place rice flour on a plate and season with salt. Dust fish lightly with the mixture and shake off excess. Cover a plate with crinkled foil to make a quick drying rack; place fish on top.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Pour beer into the flour mixture and whisk, adding more as needed, until batter is the consistency of thick pancake batter. Dip fish pieces into the batter to coat; lift out and let excess drip off.
  • Fry fish in batches until golden brown, dunking occasionally if needed, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.
