  1. Combine the batter ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms. There should be no lumps in the batter. Set it aside for 30 minutes.
  2. When you’re ready to fry the fish, add 2-3 inches of oil to a heavy saucepan and heat until it reaches 375°F, or preheat a deep fryer. Line a large plate or platter with paper towels and set it aside.
  3. Combine the flouring ingredients in a small bowl and mix well.
  4. Dredge two fish filets in the flour mixture and tap lightly to remove the excess flour.
  5. Dip the floured fish filets into the batter ensuring that they’re covered with a thick coating of batter.
  6. Gently place the filets into the heated oil.
  7. Cook for about 4 minutes per side or until medium golden brown.
  8. Remove and drain the fish on the prepared paper towels. Repeat with the remaining filets and serve.
