Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Haddock fillets
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 cup Low sodium beer
- 0.5 cup Water
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 unit Fresh lemon wedges
Instructions
Rinse and pat dry the haddock fillets with a paper towel.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Gradually whisk in the low sodium beer and water until the batter is smooth and free from lumps.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or large heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C).
Dip each piece of haddock into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated, and allow any excess batter to drip off.
Carefully place the battered fillets into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Fry each fillet for about 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally for even cooking.
Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove the fish from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot with fresh lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
