I followed the recipe exactly, but the fish didn't turn out crispy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a big fan of fried food, but this recipe changed my mind. The fish was so light and flaky, and the batter was crispy and not greasy at all.

I've tried many fried fish recipes, but this one is by far the best. The fish was perfectly cooked and the batter was crispy and flavorful.

This fried fish recipe is a keeper! The fish was crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. The batter was light and flavorful, and the fish cooked evenly throughout. I will definitely be making this again.
