Part 3/5:
Mixing the Ingredients
While the fillets marinate, it's time to create a crispy batter. In a separate mixing bowl, combine:
About 250 ml of beer (any brand will do)
All-purpose flour
Salt
A little more paprika
Mix thoroughly until you achieve a thin, even batter. The consistency is crucial; it should not be too thick or too runny for optimal adhesion to the fish.
Adjusting the Batter
If the batter appears too thick, feel free to add a bit more beer to reach your desired liquid state. The batter should form a smooth, bubbly mixture that will provide the perfect crust when fried.
Frying the Fish
The Cooking Process
Now for the fun part—frying! Make sure the oil is adequately heated in a deep frying pan.
