CRISPY BEER BATTER FISH & CHIPS



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.

UNBELIEVABLE FISH BATTER

In the early 1950's, I received this recipe on an open-line, talk-radio show. It makes the lightest, crispiest batter imaginable. This makes enough to coat approximately 2 pounds of fish.

MOUNTAIN DEW SELF RISING BATTERED FISH FILLETS



MOUNTAIN DEW SELF RISING BATTERED FISH FILLETS image

If you can make a fish batter using beer, I thought why not try Mountain Dew. This is my spin on the recipe and my husband really loved it. I am allergic to fish and most Seafood, but I love pleasing my husband with foods that he loves. He loves Cod Fish Fillets, and today I made Alaskan Cod Fish. It really looked so good and tasty, & you could even see the spices in the batter. He said the fish was light and flakey and very tasty and had a smooth batter. It pleases me immensely when I can make something that my husband truly loves and enjoys. A happy husband makes a happy wife. smile
