THE BEST BEER BATTERED FISH
Beer batter can be contentious. When done right, it is light, airy, and crunchy-perfectly complimenting the fillet within. When done poorly, it can be heavy, doughy, and overpowering. Beer battered fish takes more attention to detail than other method of frying, so it's best to work in small batches...

Steps:
- Season the fish with salt and pepper.
- Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl with a whisk.
- Dredge the fillets well in the flour mix, shaking off any excess. Refrigerate fillets until ready to fry.
- When the oil is hot, add the beer and honey to the flour mixture and stir well. A couple of lumps are preferable, so don't overwork it. Add a couple ice cubes to the batter.
- Dip a couple of fillets into the batter, coating them completely. Allow any excess batter to drain off.
- Gently place them into the 375°F oil and fry for 30 seconds.
- Flip the fillet, exposing the more-cooked bottom. Drizzle a little bit of batter on top. Flip the fillet back over and drizzle a little batter on top again. Don't overdo it, but just add a thin layer of additional batter.
- Fry the fish until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes total for fish that's an inch thick. Serve immediately.
CRISPY BEER BATTERED FISH
Recipe video above. This makes a light, crispy fish batter like you've never had before! Stays crispy for a good 15 - 20 min, though my fish disappears long before that.The yeast and carbonation in beer makes the batter puffy just like you get at good fish 'n chip shops. Meanwhile the rice flour + shock of ice cold batter hitting the hot oil makes it super crispy. Normal wheat flour doesn't cut it - the batter goes soggy within minutes!You can't taste the beer at all, and the alcohol gets cooked out. Crispy Seasoned Chips pictured - recipe coming soon. Cooks WITH the fish - handy!

Steps:
- Dry & cut fish: Pat fish dry using paper towels or a tea towel. Cut into 7 x 3cm / 3 x 1¼" batons, or larger fillets if you prefer. If you have very thick fillets, cut in half horizontally (Note 1)
- Dusting bowl: Place ¼ cup rice flour in a shallow bowl.
- Heat oil: Heat 6cm / 2" - 3" oil in a large heavy based pot over medium high heat to 190°C/375°F.
- Salt & dust: While oil is heating, sprinkle 3 or 4 pieces of fish with a pinch of salt, then coat in rice flour and shake off excess. You can leave them like this for up to 10 minutes.
- Cold batter: Just before cooking, whisk together the flour, rice flour, baking powder and salt. Add very cold beer into the batter and whisk just until incorporated evenly into the flour. Do not over-mix, do not worry about flour lumps (Note 4). It should be a fairly thin batter but fully coat the back of a spoon. If too thick, add beer 1 tsp at a time.
- Dredge fish: Dunk a piece of fish in the batter, the let the excess drip off very briefly.
- Fry 3 minutes: Carefully lower into oil, dropping it in away from you, one piece at a time. Don't crowd the pot; fry in batches. Fry for 3 minutes, flipping after about 2 minutes, until deep golden.
- Drain: Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining fish. Serve hot! However it will stay crisp for 15 - 20 minutes. (Note 5 for larger batch cooking).
- Serve with Tartare Sauce, lemon wedges and a leafy green salad on the side dressed with a classic vinaigrette. Easy single-fry-ultra-crunchy chips coming soon! In the meantime, use oven baked wedges!

CRUNCHY BATTER FRIED FISH (NO BEER)
I had great reviews with my other fish recipe recipe #104409. But I'm always striving to improve. I did some experimenting, and this fish batter is great! Serve it with recipe #104661, fries and coleslaw. Or make it into a fish sandwich with tartar sauce and lettuce on a bun. Either way, it's delish!

Steps:
- Mix together 1 cup flour, 1/4 cup cornstarch, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
- Stir in enough club soda to make a batter about the consistency of thin pancake batter. You don't want it too thick, just thick enough to nicely coat a spoon.
- Season the batter to taste if desired with seasoning of your choice. I suggest Old Bay, Lemon Pepper seasoning, or seasoned salt. set aside.
- In another bowl, mix together remaining 1/4 cup flour and 1/4 cup cornstarch.
- Heat oil in a deep pan to 375°F Use a candy thermometer if you need to. Oil in pan should be about 3" to 4" deep.
- Cut fish into portion sizes and remove any pin bones, and pat dry.
- Dredge the fish in the dry flour/cornstarch mixture. Shake off any excess.This allows the batter to stick to the fish.
- Dip dredged fish into batter allowing any excess to drip off before carefully adding the fish to the hot oil.
- Cook the fish one or two pieces at a time until golden brown.
- Drain on paper towels or better yet, on a cake cooling rack set up over paper towels.
- Serve while hot.

FRIED FISH WITH VODKA AND BEER BATTER
Heston Blumenthal, the chef at the Fat Duck near London, updated classic British fish and chips in his book "In Search of Perfection" (Bloomsbury, 2006), using a batter that includes beer and vodka. The alcohol dissolves some of the gluten proteins in the wheat flour, so the crust doesn't get tough and boils off faster than water, so the batter dries out, crisps and browns quickly, before the delicate fish inside overcooks. The coating ends up especially crunchy - with each bite, you crush many thin layers of crust.

Steps:
- Rinse fish fillets, and dry with paper towels. Season well with salt and pepper, and dust with rice flour, shaking off any extra. Set aside.
- Place a wide, deep pan over medium heat. Add oil to a depth of at least 1 1/2 inches, and bring to 375 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer. In a medium bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, 1 1/4 cups rice flour, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Slowly stir in the vodka and beer to make a batter. (Don't make batter ahead of time, or the bubbles from the lager will be lost.)
- Dip one fillet into batter to coat it completely, then lower into hot oil. Repeat with other fillets, working in batches if needed. When undersides of fillets are golden brown, after 1 or 2 minutes, turn, and brown other sides, a minute or two. Lift from oil, drain and serve.
