A delicious recipe and an all-time family favourite.
Ingredients
- 110g gluten free flour
- 1 tsp yeast
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 125ml gluten free beer or sparkling water
- For the fish
- 4 fish fillets
- 1 tbsp gluten free flour
- 2–3 litres sunflower oil for deep fat frying
Method
Step 1
To prepare the batter, place the gluten free flour and yeast in a large mixing bowl. Stir together with a fork. Add the oil and gluten free beer or sparkling water to the bowl and mix with the fork to make a smooth runny batter. Set aside in a warm place for 30 minutes until frothy.
Step 2
When ready to cook the fish preheat a deep fat fryer or a pan of hot oil to 170°C.
Step 3
Dust fish fillets with the flour mixture and immerse one at a time into the batter. Remove with tongs and place carefully into the deep fat fryer/ pan. If using a deep fat fryer, do not use the basket as the batter sometimes sticks to the wire.
Step 4
Cook for 5–6 minutes until the batter is puffed and golden. Remove fish with a slotted spoon, let it drain then lay it on kitchen paper to absorb excess oil.
Step 5
Place battered fish in warm oven while the other fish are cooked.
Step 6
Serve with crispy chips and lemon.
