Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1.5 cups club soda
- 2 cups vegetable oil
- 4 pieces lemon wedges
Instructions
Pat the white fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Gradually whisk in the club soda to create a smooth batter. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Dip each fillet in the batter, ensuring it is completely coated, then gently lower it into the hot oil.
Fry the fish for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until the batter is golden brown and crispy, and the fish is cooked through.
Use a slotted spoon or tongs to carefully remove the fish from the oil and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the fried fish hot with lemon wedges on the side.
