Ingredients

  • vegetable oil for frying

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup cornstarch

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 1 1/2 cups water

  • 2 pounds cod, hake, or other white fish

Directions

  • Preheat the oil to 350°F in a deep fryer or a medium-sized saucepan.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and cayenne pepper. Whisk in the water. The batter will get a little foamy. Continue to mix.
  • Pat the fish dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Dip the fish in the batter to fully coat each fillet.
  • Deep-fry the fillets for 3 to 4 minutes until they are golden brown. If you choose to fry multiple pieces at once, you may want to separate the pieces when cooking.
  • When the fish has finished cooking, let it drain on a wire rack.
