Off Topic Fish Batter

[poconokidII]

i too use the clubhouse english style batter mix from sobeys but i use beer as a liquid,,,beer at room temperature removes alot of the bubbles....coat then fry 3-5 minutes in canola oil.....

My brother does something similar as per post #18 but we used perch and baked at 350 F for 10-15 minutes {depending on fillet size] egg dredged with corn flake crumbs. Some Pam on the cooking sheet too. A healthier alternative to deep frying ?

Zatarain's fish fry, but can only get in the US. Sams Club or order on Amazon.
Put Zatarain's in a bowl that has a lid, dampen your filet pieces with water, put a hand full of fish pieces in and shake, take pieces out and lay on a cookie sheets ahead of time, put sheets in the fridge to let the coating stick-dry to filets before your going to have your fry. Now that all your fish is coated, now all that has to be done is deep fry in oil, batches at a time and place on another sheet pan with paper towel in the warm setting of your oven.
I do this every year on our annual group fishing trip 10 hungry fishing buddies.
OH and before hand I blanch my fresh cut fries and do the second plunge after fish is all done.
Everyone gets to sit done and chow down at the same time.
But the cook is always generally full taste testing while cooking ?

I have never seen this in stores, where do you get it. Always looking for something new to try

Lambeth Rod and tackle sells "Taylors one step" it is like shake and bake for fish. It is sold out of Wheatley and takes first place amongst friends and family. They have a website. no egg wash just add fish shake in bag and deep fry.
