Ingredients
For the fish
- 3 pounds of fish (such as cod or haddock)
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup corn starch
- 12 oz cold beer
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon backing powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 cups vegetable oil for frying
For the sauce
- 4 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon chopped dill
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 small garlic clove, grated
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
Step-by-step
1
Prepare the sauce by combining the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, chopped dill, lemon juice, lemon zest, grated garlic, pinch of salt, and pinch of black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined. Cover and refrigerate the sauce while you prepare the fish.
2
Prepare the fish batter by whisking together the flour, corn starch, salt, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl. Then, gradually pour in the cold beer, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and well-blended.
3
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels, then season with salt, garlic powder, and black pepper on both sides, then cut the fish into smaller pieces.
4
Dip the seasoned fish fillets into the beer batter, ensuring they are fully coated, then carefully lower each battered fish fillet into the preheated hot oil.
Note: If you find the batter not sticking to the fish, lightly coat the fish in flour, shaking off any excess. If the batter is too runny – add a bit more flour to it; however if it’s too thick – add more beer.
5
Fry the fish in batches for 4-5 minutes, or until the batter is golden brown and crispy.
6
Remove the fish from the oil and place on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
7
Serve the beer battered fish hot, accompanied by the lemon dill sauce.
