Ingredients
Note: you will need a deep fryer or large, deep pot to prepare this dish.
Vegetable or other light oil, for frying
2 pounds cod or other sustainable, firm, white, flaky fish fillets, cut into 4-5-inch chunks
Salt and pepper
Wondra Superfine Flour, for dredging
1 bottle lager beer
2 cups flour
2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning (a couple of scant palmfuls)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg, beaten
Directions
Pre-heat the oil to 375°F in a countertop deep fryer or 2 1/2-3 inches of oil in a large deep pot. Season the fish with salt and pepper and dredge lightly in the Wondra. In a large mixing bowl, whisk up the batter of beer, flour, Old Bay, baking powder and egg. When the oil is hot, dip the fish, two pieces at a time, in the batter and fry for 4-5 minutes to deep golden.
