Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons melted butter
1 cup flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 egg
1 cup club soda
1 tablespoon lemon juice or 1 tablespoon lime juice
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Mix baking soda, salt, pepper and flour.
  • Add melted butter.
  • Add egg and lemon juice.
  • Add soda. (add more if batter seems too thick.) Batter will be lumpy, but lumps will cook out, so don't over mix.
  • Dip fish or vegetables into dry flour first before dipping into batter. This will help batter stick.
  • Fry veggies first in hot oil (350 degrees), then fish.
  • Drain on paper towels and keep in warm oven while frying.
  • Serve with tartar sauce.
