Rubios Fish Taco Recipe Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by Treebs

Number Of Ingredients 22

12 sticks of fish - prepared as above
12 corn tortillas
oil for deep frying
Batter
1 cup flour
1 cup beer
1 tspn garlic powder
few twists pepper
Sauce
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup plain yoghurt
Salsa
1 garlic clove - peeled and finely chopped
6 ripe tomatoes - diced finely
Small red onion - peeled and diced
2 tablespoon cilantro leaves - chopped finely
2 jalapeno chillies - seeded and chopped finely
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Salad
Finely shredded hard cabbage
limes - cut into wedges - you'll need 12 pieces

Steps:

First make your batter - whisk the ingredients together until they're well blended and then beat a little longer to make the batter full of air bubbles 'airy'. Set aside for an hour. Mix the sauce ingredients together and put into the fridge. Mix the salsa ingredients together - if you can't get cilantro leaves, use fresh chopped parsley, coriander, chives or similar to your taste - I used shredded basil leaves. Have everything ready to assemble before you cook the fish. Before you start cooking, give the batter another whisk - this will make it airy again - vital for crispy batter.
