Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces haddock fillets
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 large egg
- 0.75 cup low-carb beer (or sparkling water for non-alcoholic version)
- 1 cup coconut oil or avocado oil
- 4 pieces lemon wedges
Instructions
Pat the haddock fillets dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture and set aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg and then add it to the flour mixture, stirring until well combined.
Gradually add the low-carb beer (or sparkling water) to the batter, stirring continuously until smooth and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Heat the coconut oil or avocado oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat. The oil should reach about 350°F (175°C) for optimal frying.
Dip each haddock fillet into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated, then gently place it into the hot oil.
Fry the fillets in batches for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the batter is golden brown and crispy, and the fish is cooked through.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fish from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the fish.
