KITTENCAL'S BEER BATTERED FISH

Kittencal's Beer Battered Fish image

A long time favorite I have used for over 25 years, plan ahead the batter needs to sit for one hour before using --- the amounts listed will be enough for 2 pounds of fish, you may double but make certain to prepare two separate recipes in two bowls, do not double into one bowl as the batter will not be as good --- you may wish to add in 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and paprika to the flour mixture for extra flavor and for a little heat add in a pinch of cayenne pepper :)

Yield 2 pounds fish

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt (I use seasoned salt for this)
1 tablespoon melted butter
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup beer (preferably dark beer)
1 egg white (stiffly beaten)
2 lbs fish

Steps:

Sift flour and salt, add butter and egg; add beer gradually, add beaten egg white, stirring only until smooth.
Let stand for 1 hour in a warm place.
In a deep fryer or heavy pot heat oil to 375 degrees.
Dip fish in batter then fry in hot oil until golden brown (fry the fish in batches).
Allow to drain on a heavy brown paper bag or on double paper towels.
** It is best to use thinner pieces of fish if you intend to fry the whole piece or just cut into large chunks.

This is a great beer batter fish recipe, and is very easy to do. We often fish all day with friends, and then cook the fish afterwards out on deck. Yummy and great!

Ingredients

2 quarts vegetable oil for frying
8 (4 ounce) fillets cod
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons paprika
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper

Combine flour, garlic powder, paprika, 2 teaspoons salt, and 2 teaspoons pepper. Stir egg into dry ingredients. Gradually mix in beer until a thin batter is formed. You should be able to see the fish through the batter after it has been dipped.
