• Ready In: 13mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Yields: 1 batch
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1⁄2 cup corn flour
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1⁄4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1⁄4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon paprika
• 1⁄2 teaspoon white pepper
• beer or water

directions

1. Mix all dry ingredients with a whisk, then add water or beer till thin consistency - approximately a cup.
2. let rest in fridge for 10 minutes, then add more liquid till it is loose (thin).
3. dunk filets in and drop in 375-degree oil ( I use a 12 inch chicken fryer or deep skillet something heavy that conducts heat well) fry till golden brown and remove to a cookie sheet with a rack so fish doesn't lay in oil. excess oil will drop to pan below this is much better than paper towels -- .
