Best 6 Beer Battered Fish With Tartar Sauce Recipes

BEER-BATTERED FISH WITH TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all the tartar sauce ingredients in a bowl with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Heat the oven to 200°. Cover a cookie sheet with paper towels and top with a wire rack.
• Heat about 3" of oil to approximately 365° in a medium sized pot.
• Meanwhile, mix flour with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk in egg. Slowly add the beer while whisking.
• Dip fish pieces in the batter and place on plate or the wire rack you will be using to drain the fried fish. I usually double dip in the batter if I have some left over once the batter dries on the awaiting fish.
• Place fish pieces, two at a time in the oil. Cook until the fish is done and the crust is lightly golden, about 4 minutes for 3/4-inch thick fillets.
• Remove fish with tongs and put on rack to drain. Sprinkle salt over the hot fish and put the baking sheet in the oven.
• Repeat in batches with the remaining fish.
• Serve with the tartar sauce.

• Just before serving, increase the heat of the oil to 375 degrees F and fry the potatoes again, in batches, until golden brown. Remove to a sheet pan lined with paper towels and season with the spices and chopped cilantro.
• Fried Fish:
• Preheat a deep-fryer or a deep pot filled halfway with oil to 360 degrees F. Whisk together the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and beer in a large bowl. Set aside for 10 minutes. Fold in the egg whites.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Season the fish with salt and pepper, dredge in flour, tap off excess then dip the fish in the batter and fry in batches until golden brown on both sides. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Serve with, Chips, Lemon-Habanero Tartar Sauce and Serrano Vinegar.
• Bring the lemon juice to a boil over high heat in a small saucepan and cook until reduced to 1/2 cup. Let cool.
• Combine cooled lemon juice, mayonnaise, anchovy and habanero in a food processor and process until combined. Scrape the mixture into a medium bowl and fold in the cornichon and capers and season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

BEER-BATTERED FLUKE WITH JALAPENO TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat. Heat about 4 inches of oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pot over direct heat until it reaches 360 degrees F.
• For the beer-battered fluke: Whisk together 3 cups of the instant flour with the cornstarch, seafood seasoning, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a large bowl. Whisk together the eggs and beer in a separate large bowl. Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until there are no lumps. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes so the flour can bloom.
• Meanwhile, make the tartar sauce: Whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, garlic, jalapeno, lime zest and juice in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. You can add a splash of the jalapeno pickling liquid if desired for extra flavor.
• Dry the fish fillets with paper towels and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Working in batches, dredge each piece of fish in the batter. Using a fork, lift each fish fillet out of the batter, let the extra batter drip down and then carefully drop the battered fish into the oil. Do not overcrowd the pot. Fry until the batter is golden brown and crisp and the fish is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with sea salt.
• Season the remaining 1/2 cup of instant flour with salt and pepper. Dredge the lemon slices and parsley in the seasoned flour, then fry until crisp, about 2 minutes. Remove to the paper towel-lined plate. Add the fried fish, lemons and parsley to a platter and serve immediately with the jalapeno tartar sauce for dipping.
• (Alternatively, you can fry the fish, lemons and parsley in 360 degrees F oil over medium-high heat on a stovetop.)
