Batter Fried Haddock Fish Tacos image

It's an easy and light recipe and great for anytime of the year. I think that it makes a fall/winter day festive and a great spring/summer season starter. The fish is fresh and inviting and the ingredients are just perfect. I'm still a novice in Mexican cuisine, but I am hoping that I did this recipe some justice!

Steps:

  • 1. CITRUS VINAIGRETTE: Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend for approximately 1 minute. Set aside.
  • 2. CABBAGE SLAW: Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • 3. AVOCADO-MANGO SALSA: Gently combine all ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • 4. BATTER FRIED HADDOCK AND TORTILLAS: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • 5. Wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil and place in the oven until soft and pliant, about 12 minutes. Remove and keep wrapped until ready to use.
  • 6. In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the oil to 350 degrees F over high heat.
  • 7. In a large bowl, beat the egg with the milk and water. Add the flour, and baking powder, and whisk to make a thin batter. Dip the fish in the batter, turning to coat, and shake to remove any excess. Fry in batches in the oil until golden and crisp, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Remove, drain on paper towels.

Squeeze with lime juice, and top with salsa to taste. Garnish with cilantro and serve immediately.
