Steps:
- Pat the fish filet strips dry with paper towels.

- Beat the egg whites until stiff, and fold into the mixture.
- In a large skillet, heat oil with a depth of no more than 1 inch.
- Dip each fish strip in the batter, fry quickly on one side, turning to fry the other until golden brown. This should only take a couple of minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels.

TACOS DE PESCADO (BAJA STYLE BUT NO CABBAGE)
I love Tacos Pescado, but I'm not a fan of the Baja Style. I love the breaded and fried fish, but I just can't embrace having it served in tortillas with cole slaw. I found this style of Tacos Pescado while eating at J. Anthony's Seafood Cafe in San Antonio, TX. I've duplicated and improved the style somewhat.

Steps:
- For the Beer Batter:
- Mix the flour, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Gradually add in the beer while whisking. Set aside and let the batter rest for 15 minutes before using.
- For Cream Sauce:
- Add the mayonnaise and crema to a medium bowl. Whisk in the lemon zest, lemon juice and water. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper (can be made 3 days ahead, covered and refrigerated).
- For the Fish:
- In a large skillet, over medium heat, add enough oil to reach a depth of 1-inch. Heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F or when the end of a wooden spoon sizzles when inserted into the oil.
- On a large plate, combine the flour and salt. Season the fish pieces all over with salt and pepper and coat with the flour. Working in batches, dip the fillets in the beer batter and coat on both sides. Fry in the hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Make tacos with the tortillas and fish and top each with cream, shredded cabbage, tomatillo salsa and pickled jalapenos, if desired.
- *Cook's Note: Crack open a cold Mexican cerveza like a Negra Modelo or a 2 Equis (XX) Amber to make this tasty beer batter, which will change the way you think about fried fish! You can use it for vegetables, too.
- **Cook's Note: Mexican Crema is Mexico's version of creme fraiche and is found at many supermarkets and can easily be substituted with sour cream.
BAJA SAUCE FOR FISH OR SHRIMP TACOS
I really like this on grilled or blackened fish tacos.
