Beer-Battered Fish


"The Summer Shack Cookbook: The Complete Guide to Shore Food" by Jasper White


Serves 4





INGREDIENTS








• About 6 cups peanut, canola, or other vegetable oil for deep-frying


• 1-1/2 pounds (or a little more) skinless fish fillets (large flounder and fluke, haddock, hake cod, Pollock, ocean perch, or tautog), cut into 4 thin (less than 3/4 inch) slices


• About 3 tablespoons Spiced Seafood Salt (page 168), or salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste


• 1-cup all-purpose flour


For the batter





• 1 cup of cornstarch


• One 12-ounce can beer or ale


• 1 large egg


• 1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt


For the tarter sauce





• 3 cups Hellmann's mayonnaise


• Juice of 1/2 large lemon (2 tablespoons)


• 1/2 onion, minced (1/3 cup)


• 1/4 cup minced fresh Italian parsley


• 4 medium dill pickle spears, minced (1/2 cup)


• 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and chopped


• 2 hard-boiled eggs, finely chopped


• 2 hard-boiled eggs, finely chopped


• 1/2 teaspoon kosher or sea salt


• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper





DIRECTIONS


The batter can be made several hours in advance and refrigerated until ready to use.





1. To make the batter: Combine the flour, cornstarch, beer, egg, and salt in a large mixing bowl and whisk well. The batter will be very light-slightly thinner than a regular pancake batter. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 3 hours.





2. Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Heat 3 inches of oil to 375 F in a 4-to-5-quart Dutch oven over medium heat or in a deep fryer.





3. While the oil is heating, dry the fish fillets between several thicknesses of paper towels. Season with the spiced salt (or salt and pepper). Drop the fillets into the batter and toss with tongs to coat evenly.





4. When the oil is hot, lift the fillets one by one from the batter with the tongs, letting excess batter drip back into the bowl, and lower them into the oil, holding each fillet suspended in the oil for a few seconds to set the batter and prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot. The temperature of the oil will drop when the fish is added, but you overheated the oil, to 375 F, to compensate for this. Don't let the oil come back over 350 F once it recovers. Fry the fillets until deep golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer them to the paper towel-lined baking sheet with tongs. Serve the fish hot with the French Fries, coleslaw, tartar sauce, lemon wedges, and malt vinegar.





For the tarter sauce:





1. Combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, onion, parsley, pickles, capers, and eggs in a large bowl and whisk well to combine. Transfer to a bowl or another container; cover tightly, and refrigerate until ready to use. Tartar sauce keeps refrigerated for up to one week.





TIPS


Serve with Boardwalk French Fries for a great summer meal.

1 1/4 cups beer





1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Reply:DEEP FRIED FISH BATTER





1 egg


1 c. pancake mix


8 oz. 7-Up (approximately)


Additional pancake mix





Mix egg, pancake mix and 7-Up together well. Dip thin fish fillets, which have been coated with pancake batter (shake both in plastic bag) and chilled about 20 minutes in mixture. Remove 1 at a time and deep fry for 4 to 6 minutes at about 400 degrees. Remove onto paper towels to drain.











CRUNCHY FRIED FISH





2 lb. fish fillets


Lemon pepper seasoning


1 1/2 c. biscuit or pancake mix


1 egg


1 tsp. salt


1 1/2 c. dark beer





Dry fillets and sprinkle with lemon pepper seasoning; set aside. Mix biscuit (or pancake mix), egg, salt and beer. Dip fish in batter and let excess drip off. Lower 1 fillet at a time into cooking oil preheated to about 375 degrees. Fry approximately 2 1/2 minutes or until golden brown. Drain and serve. This batter works well with shrimp, scallops and oysters. Of course all of the alcohol in the beer evaporates in the cooking.











ARCHER TEREACCHER FISH %26amp; CHIPS





3 c. boxed pancake mix


3 - 4 c. club soda


.4 oz. env. ranch flavor dressing mix powder


2 - 3 fish fillets





With wire whisk combine the pancake mix and enough of the club soda that the batter is the consistency of buttermilk - pourable. Whisk in the ranch dressing mix. Dip the fillets into just enough plain all- purpose flour that you can coat them lightly but evenly. Let dry a few minutes on waxed paper. Dip into wet batter to coat lightly but evenly, letting excess batter drip back into bowl. Fry a few pieces at a time in 385 degrees oil, at least 3 inches deep in heavy sauce pan or electric fryer. Take out when golden brown.
Reply:1 c. self-rising flour


4 tbsp. cold water or more, if needed


2 tsp. salt


4 tbsp. salt


2 egg whites and 2 egg yolks


1 or more lbs. filleted fish





Soak fish for 25 minutes in salted water. Whisk 2 egg yolks and stir in flour, cold water, salt and oil. Mix all together. Beat 2 egg whites until stiff, fold into flour mixture. First dip fish into flour, then into batter, then into flour again and into batter again. Fry in oil until golden brown.
Reply:Yes:





You will need flour, cooking oil, and eggs (amount differs from number of fish pieces,) two large bowls, and one x-large skillet.








1. Poor cooking oil into an x-large skillet, fill 1/3 from bottom. Wait for a rolling boil.


2. Poor flour into one of the large bowls, to the half- way mark.


3. Poor beaten eggs into another large bowl about ¼ from bottom.


4. Dip the whole piece of fish into beaten eggs.


5. Dip the egg soaked fish into the flour.


6. Gently lay the piece of fish into the boiling oil and fry until golden brown.


7. Seasonings are you choice (Cajun, pepper, salt, etc.)





I really hope you use this recipe. I’m a freshman and I’m going to become a chef when I’m older. I used this recipe on my family 3 times and they loved it, and trust me- we are picky eaters. Anyway, there are so many other answers to choose from and mine is probably least likely to be chosen as best because I actually made the recipe myself, but anyway- enjoy your fried fish!
Reply:2 cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting


Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper


12 ounces beer, pilsner or ale


1 egg yolk


Vegetable oil, for frying


Sage or basil leaves


1/2 pound medium shrimp, shelled, deveined and butterflied


1/2 pound calamari, cut into rings


1/2 pound fresh white anchovies or sardines, cleaned and filleted


Lemon wedges, for garnish

















Put flour into a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the beer, 1/2 half at a time, whisking to work out any lumps. Add the egg yolk and mix well to combine. The batter should be the consistency of heavy cream.


In a wok or deep fat fryer, heat a couple of inches of oil to 375 degrees F. Rinse and dry all ingredients to be fried. Fry the ingredients in the order listed. Coat ingredients with flour, shaking off the excess. Dip in batter and immediately place into hot oil. Do not overcrowd pan. Cook until golden: the herbs will cook quickly, the seafood will take a bit longer. Skim any loose pieces of batter from the oil. Drain on paper towels. Place on a large platter, season with salt and pepper, and squeeze over some lemon wedges. Serve immediately.

Reply:a good fish and chip batter is to take about a half can of beer and mx it into flour.


Start with about a cup of flour and add beer to it until you have a good thick battter. It should take about a half can or less.
