Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound of cod fillets cut into 2 inch strips
1 cup flat beer, maybe a tad more to thin the batter if it is too thick
1/2 teaspoon (each) of salt and pepper
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
enough canola for frying. i use an electric skillet.
malt vinegar to shake on fish
MY TARTAR SAUCE RECIPE
1 cup of mayo, best foods
2 tablespoons fresh minced onions
1/4 cup fresh minced parsley
1 dill pickle minced
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons malt vinegar
salt and white pepper if desired
mix it all together and chill 1 hour.

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the electric skillet or deep fryer to 375 degrees. Use canola oil for frying.
  • 2. Before you begin, make sure the fish is dry. This will make the batter stick to the fish. You can use any white firm fish, but cod is better.
  • 3. In a pie plate, combine flour, baking soda, salt and pepper. Whisk until mixed, then add the beer and mix until smooth. You may need to add a little more beer to thin the batter.
  • 4. Drop the coated fish in the hot oil. Fry about 6 to 8 minutes a side until golden brown and crispy, and then turn and cook the other side. Don't over cook. Drain fish on paper towels.
  • 5. Serve with the homemade tartar sauce recipe above. Sprinkle the fish with malt vinegar. Pass the bottle at the table.
  • 6. This is what it looks like! Enjoy!
  • 7. Cook's tip: This is excellent served with my oven fries posted on this site. You can make either fries or the wedges/chips. They are also low in calories and fat with only 1 tablespoon of olive oil!" https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/utahn/best-oven-baked-fries/potatoes?k=oven+fries+bonnie&p=1&o=r
