Ingredients
- 4 tilapia fillets
- ¼ cup coconut oil or vegetable oil
- corn tortillas
- red cabbage slaw
Batter
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp cumin ground
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 2 egg beaten, white
- 1 cup beer
Instructions
- Combine flour, salt, pepper, cumin, and coriander in a medium-sized bowl. Stir in egg whites. Whisk in the beer and let it sit for 30 minutes.
- Pat fish dry on paper towel. Cut into strips and then cut the strips in half. (If fillets are thick, slice them in half like a book before cutting into strips.)
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Test oil by dropping a tiny bit of beer batter in it. When the batter sizzles, the oil is ready.
- Dip the piece of fish in the beer batter and allow the extra to drip off.
- Place in the hot oil, cooking just a few at a time. Cook for 2-3 min on one side then flip when golden brown. Allow the other side to cook and become golden as well.
- Remove fish from pan and set on paper towels. Repeat with remaining fish.
- Warm tortillas. Place a few pieces of fish and then some slaw on top of each tortilla. Serve immediately.
