Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces White fish fillets (such as cod or haddock)
- 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Gluten-free beer
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 cup Cornstarch
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Instructions
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season the fillets on both sides with a little salt and pepper.
In a large deep skillet or Dutch oven, preheat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). It's important to maintain this temperature to ensure a crispy batter.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the gluten-free beer slowly, whisking constantly until you have a smooth, thick batter. Set aside while you prepare the fish.
Lightly coat the fish fillets in cornstarch, shaking off any excess. This step helps the batter adhere better to the fish.
Dip the cornstarch-dusted fillets into the batter, making sure they are fully coated.
Carefully place the battered fillets in the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry each batch for about 4-5 minutes per side, until the fish is golden brown and crispy.
Use a slotted spoon to carefully remove the fish from the oil, letting the excess oil drain back into the pan. Place the fish on a plate lined with paper towels.
Serve the gluten-free beer battered fish hot with lemon wedges on the side.
