Instructions

  1. Cut the fish into 3 to 4 long pieces and pat them dry.
  2. Season the fish with up to 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper powder. Mix and rest for 20 minutes.
  3. For the batter, first mix the dry ingredients in a bowl: flour, cornflour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, onion powder and garlic powder.
  4. Slowly add 150 ml cold club soda to the dry mix and stir well to make a thick batter.
  5. For the tartar sauce, combine 5 to 6 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon chopped dill or parsley, 2 to 3 teaspoons chopped dill pickle, a pinch of pepper powder and 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice.
  6. Heat oil for deep frying. Dip each fish piece in the batter and coat well on both sides, then lower gently into the hot oil without crowding the pan.
  7. Turn the pieces after about a minute, then fry for another 5 to 6 minutes, turning as needed, until evenly golden.
  8. Remove the fish and repeat with the remaining pieces. Serve hot with potato fries and the tartar sauce.
