Kiss (Keeping It Super Simple) Fried Fish

Beer, fish, pancake batter - that's all you need! Dip, fry, eat - that's all you do! Great with salads or chips and mushy peas! We make a bit of "tartar sauce" by chopping up gherkins quite finely and mixing it into some mayo with a tad of lemon and hot mustard to taste but the kids like a mayo and ketchup mix...experiment! It's fun!

1. set fryer to 160 degrees celsius.
