Steps:
- Mix the chipotle sauce ingredients together in a small bowl.
- Mix the slaw ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl.
- Pour 2-inches of oil into a large, high-sided skillet or medium-sized pot and begin heating it over medium heat. If you have an oil thermometer, attach it to the pot.
- Mix ½ cup of the flour, garlic powder, and onion powder in a shallow bowl.
- In a large bowl, mix the remaining 1 cup of flour, baking soda, salt, and pepper.
- Cut the fish into small pieces no more than 1" wide. Dry them well with paper towels then add them to the shallow bowl and toss them with the flour.
- When the oil reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit (see note #4) it's time to fry the fish. Pour the beer into the large bowl of flour and briefly mix it for 4-5 seconds. Dip a piece of fish into the batter and let the excess drip back into the bowl. Carefully put it into the hot oil. Repeat with 5-6 more pieces, making sure not to crowd the pan. Let the fish cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the batter is golden all around and the fish is cooked through.
- Using tongs, remove the fish from the oil and place it on a cooling rack set up over a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining fish until all the pieces are cooked.
- Warm the tortillas (see note #5) then serve them piled with slaw, chipotle sauce, and crispy fish.

BEER BATTER FISH TACOS
Something about a good fish taco just screams summer. The beer batter is light and crunchy, perfect with the cod. Hot sauce brings a bit of heat but is a great complement to the tanginess of the lime and tartar sauce. Crispy cabbage on top of these refreshing fish tacos is excellent.

Steps:
- For the beer batter: In large bowl add half the beer. Add yeast, then stir to dissolve. With a whisk, slowly add the flour. Add more beer as needed to make a thin batter. Add salt. Place bowl in a warm spot. It will get foamy and rise in volume. Let rest and rise for about 2 hours.
- Remove and discard top skin if one forms. Batter is now ready to use.
- For the black beans: In large pot, add black beans, onion, tomato and water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
- Remove tomato from pot. Once cool enough to handle, remove skin and discard. Rough chop tomato and add back to beans.
- Allow beans to simmer until tender, about 2 hours. Remove onion and discard. Season with cumin, coriander and salt to taste. Keep beans hot until ready to serve.
- For the miso aioli: In a food processor add miso pastes, hot sauce, soy sauce, scallions, lime juice and egg. Blend until smooth. With machine running, slowly drizzle oil in until all is incorporated.
- For the charred jalapeno and cucumber salsa: Place jalapeno on a hot grill and cook, turning occasionally, until skin is charred and black. Remove from heat. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then peel and remove seeds. Dice finely.
- Combine jalapeno, cilantro, cucumber and shallots in a bowl. Add vinaigrette, then mix. Taste and add salt or lime juice if needed. Set aside.
- For the tacos: Fill up a fryer or very large pot with rice bran oil and heat to 350 degrees F.

- Place fish in the flour and toss to coat. Remove excess flour.

Steps:
- First, make the pickled onions. Put the vinegar in a pan with 150ml water, the coriander seeds, peppercorns, sugar and 1 tsp salt over a medium heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Scoop the onions into a bowl and carefully pour over the hot pickling liquid. Leave to cool for 15 mins, then cover and chill for at least 1 hr. Will keep chilled for up to two days.
- For the tartare sauce, mix together all the ingredients, then cover and chill. Will keep chilled for up to two days.
- Sift the flour and cornflour into a bowl, then stir through the salt. Make a well in the centre and whisk in the cold beer to make a smooth batter. Cover and chill for 30 mins.
- Heat the oil in a deep, heavy-based pan, no more than two-thirds full, until the oil reaches 190C on a cooking thermometer. If you don't have a thermometer, check the oil is ready by dropping a small cube of bread into the oil - it should turn brown in about 10 seconds.
- Dip each piece of cod into the batter to fully coat, then gently shake off the excess. Fry the fish in batches for 4 mins per batch, then remove using a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
- Warm your tortillas in a low oven or in a dry frying pan. Spread over the tartare sauce, then add the fish and top with the pickled onions and shredded lettuce, plus a dash of hot sauce, if you like. Best enjoyed with a cold beer.
