Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 200 grams calamari rings
- 300 grams cod fillets, cut into strips
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 cup sparkling water or club soda
- 1 whole lemon, sliced into wedges
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
- 1 liter vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
Rinse the seafood (shrimp, calamari, cod) under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix thoroughly.
Slowly whisk in the sparkling water or club soda until the batter is smooth and slightly thick; consistency should be similar to pancake batter.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep saucepan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Make sure there's enough oil to submerge the seafood.
Dip each piece of seafood into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off.
Carefully place a few pieces at a time into the hot oil, frying for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried seafood, placing them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Repeat the process until all the seafood is cooked.
Garnish the fried seafood platter with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
For best results, serve immediately for a crispy texture.
