I've never been a big fan of batter-fried fish...until now! I honestly have no idea what fish we used (something a friend of ours caught near the Gulf of Mexico, lol) but it was nice and juicy inside and the batter was crisp and flaky and very, very light. Dh just used canola oil in a regular frying pan and it worked fine. He sliced a zucchini and used the leftover batter with that...I love it even more on the veggies! This is definitely our 'must keep' beer batter recipe from here on out ~ thanks SO much Laudee and the Denver Fire Dept! :)

Your batter recipe is a keeper Laudee!! I used it for true cod,and it was very juicy. I cooked in a deep fryer,using peanut oil.DH said,"now that was good fish",and agreed that the batter was a 5*****. When he found out there was more fish,he grabbed another piece.I have visions of the veggies I am going to make with this recipe. Thanks Laudee.:0)
