Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces White fish fillets
- 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Club soda
- 4 pieces Ice cubes
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
Instructions
Pat the white fish fillets dry with paper towels and cut the fish into smaller pieces if desired for ease of frying.
In a deep frying pan or a deep fryer, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
While the oil is heating, prepare the tempura batter. In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt.
Add the club soda slowly to the flour mixture and stir gently to incorporate. The batter should be slightly lumpy but well combined.
Add ice cubes to the batter to keep it cold, and stir briefly just before using.
Dip each piece of fish into the batter, ensuring it is completely coated.
Carefully place the battered fish pieces into the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Cook each piece for about 3-4 minutes or until the batter is golden brown and crispy. Flip the fish halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove the fried fish from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
Serve immediately with a wedge of lemon or your favorite gluten-free dipping sauce.
