Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces fresh haddock fillets
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1.25 cups beer (dairy-free)
- 4 cups oil for frying
- 1 lemon lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Begin by patting the haddock fillets dry with paper towels; this helps the batter adhere better.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Slowly pour in the dairy-free beer while whisking to ensure a smooth, lump-free batter. You want it to be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, so adjust with a little extra flour or beer if needed.
Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).
Dip each haddock fillet into the beer batter, making sure it is fully coated.
Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil, frying two fillets at a time to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Cook for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the batter is golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to maintain the oil temperature.
Using a slotted spoon or tongs, remove the haddock from the oil and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining fillets.
Serve the beer battered haddock hot with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy!
