Ingredients for Beer Batter Fish

- 1 cup light beer (e.g., Pilsner, Lager)

- Ground Pepper
- Onion Powder
- Turmeric
- Fillets Of Sole
- Vegetable Oil
How to Make Beer Batter Fish
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
- Gradually whisk in the beer until a smooth batter forms. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Gently dip each fish fillet into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil is ready when a small piece of batter sizzles immediately.
- Carefully place the battered fish fillets in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the fish from the skillet and place it on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as tartar sauce, lemon wedges, and french fries.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
