Ingredients
Preparation method
Make sure the cod pieces do not contain excess water. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Sprinkle salt on each piece of cod.
Place a large food bag in the bowl and weigh the flour into it. Place the bag in the freezer for 15 minutes.
Heat the oil to 180°C in a deep saucepan or a deep fryer.
Insert the butterfly whisk into the bowl. Add the cold flour, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, then mix for 10 seconds at speed 2.
Add the beer and mix for 2 minutes/speed 3, until smooth. Remove the butterfly whisk. Use the batter immediately: dip the fish fillets into the batter, then carefully place them in the hot oil and deep-fry for 8–10 minutes, until golden and cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Serve with French fries, and add a squeeze of lemon over the fish for extra freshness.
