Crispy Fried Fish

Course: Main Course

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1 ½ cups beer
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 pound cod fillets
  • 2 cups crushed cornflake crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 1 quart oil for frying

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, beat together egg, beer, flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Place cod in the bowl, and thoroughly coat with the mixture.
  • In a separate medium bowl, mix the cornflake crumbs and Cajun seasoning. Dip the cod in the crumb mixture, and thoroughly coat all sides.
  • In a large, heavy skillet or deep fryer, heat the oil to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Fry the fish until golden brown, and flesh is easily flaked with a fork.

Notes

If cornflakes are not used, increase the amount of flour.
