Blot the fish with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Thoroughly dredge all sides of the fish in the flour and shake off the excess. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a large flat bowl. Pour in the cold beer and whisk until smooth. In another large flat bowl add some extra flour for dredging. Based on my experience of living in England and eating at dozens upon dozens of different fish & chip joints throughout the country, hands down the best fried fish is perfectly crispy and isn’t overly greasy or dripping with oil. It’s the kind of batter where you both hear and feel it crunch when you bite into it followed by your teeth sinking into the tender white flesh of the fish.Prefer some tartar sauce with your fish?

Fry the fish in the deep fryer for 5-8 minutes or until nicely golden. If using a frying pan fry the fish for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until nicely golden. The two key ingredients that are “musts” are 1) fizzy beer and 2) baking powder. These are key to achieving an “airy” batter. Plus the beer gives the fish that indisputably irreplaceable traditional British flavor. Heat the oil in a deep fryer or a large heavy pan or Dutch oven until the temperature reaches over high heat until it reaches 325 degrees F.
