Grandpa Cornishs Deep Fried Fish Recipes

Steps:

• Mix beer and egg.
• "Soak"fish (or whatever) in beer-egg mixture.
• Grandpa varies the soaking time, I wouldn't go less than 10 minutes.
• Heat oil in pan or deep fryer.
• Season pancake mix to taste with favorite spice mix.
• Take fish out of beer-egg mixture and dredge in pancake mix.
• Fry as normal.
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• I like to drizzle lemon or lime juice (or even vinegar) over before eating.

Steps:

• Preheat a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, add the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt and cayenne and whisk to combine. Whisk in the beer, being sure to remove any lumps.
• Cut the catfish fillets in half lengthwise to make 2 strips. If desired, cut into bite-sized pieces. In a small bowl add the salt, pepper and granulated garlic. Season the fillets with some of the salt mixture. Reserve the remaining salt mixture for another use.
• Dip each strip in the beer batter and add to the fryer, a few at a time, moving them around so they don't stick. Fry until brown and crispy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the fryer to a serving platter. Repeat with the remaining fillets and season the fish with lemon juice.

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients.
• Heat oil to 365F degrees.
• Dip fish in milk, then in flour mixture.
• Fry a few at a time, turning once, about 2 minutes each side.
• Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Half-fill a deep pan with melted fat or oil. Heat until a faint haze rises from it (or until a bread cube sinks to the bottom of the pan, rises to the top immediately and turns golden in 50 seconds).
• Sift the flour and salt into a bowl.
• Beat to a smooth batter, unbeaten egg, butter and milk. Then add the flour and salt mixture.
• Coat 2 pieces of fish with batter.
• Lift into the pan with a fork or kitchen tongs.
• Fry until crisp and golden, allowing about 6-8 minutes for large pieces and 4-5 minutes for medium.
• Remove from the pan and drain on absorbent kitchen paper.
• Repeat with the remaining fish.
• Garnish with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except fish and mix well.
• Coat fish fillets or pieces in batter and place on cookie sheet or tray; chill for around 30 minutes (if you skip this step, the batter will not stick to the fish).
• Deep-fry or pan-fry until cooked through.

Steps:

• Pat fish fillets dry w/paper towels, cut into pieces & set aside.
• Mix the next 6 ingredients (flour through pepper) in a large bowl. Add beer + egg & mix till smooth & lump-free. Allow batter to rest for 30 minutes.
• Heat oil to approx 180°C (350°F). Dip fish pieces in the batter & deep-fry them (a few at a time) for 5-6 minutes or till golden brown.
• Remove from the oil using a slotted spoon, drain on kitchen paper & keep warm till all the fish has been cooked.
