fish in batter

Preheat the oil for deep fat frying to 180C/350F.

Prepare batter - sieve flour and salt into a bowl. Make a well in the centre, pour in oil and beer, and carefully mix in the flour.

Whisk the egg white until stiff and fold into the batter.

Coat the fish in seasoned flour and dip into the batter; drain and lower into the hot oil.

Fry until the batter is crisp and golden.

Remove from the oil and drain on absorbent paper.
