Your favorite fish fillets are coated in a beer batter and a spicy crumb coating, then deep fried.
INGREDIENTS (for 4 servings):
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 cups beer
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 pound cod fillets
- 2 cups crushed cornflake crumbs
- 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
- 1 quart oil for frying
PREPARATION:
In a medium bowl, beat together egg, beer, flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Place cod in the bowl, and thoroughly coat with the mixture.
In a separate medium bowl, mix the cornflake crumbs and Cajun seasoning. Dip the cod in the crumb mixture, and thoroughly coat all sides.
In a large, heavy skillet or deep fryer, heat the oil to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Fry the fish until golden brown, and flesh is easily flaked with a fork.
Editor's Note:We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. The exact amount may vary depending on cook time and temperature, ingredient density, and the specific type of oil used.
