BEER-BATTERED FISH WITH TARTAR SAUCE



Beer-Battered Fish With Tartar Sauce image

One of the things that sticks out most in my mind about my last trip to Ireland is how incredibly good the fish and chips are. They were served in a newspaper cone that was stuffed with waffle fries and fish. This recipe brings back those fond memories. the secret for a crackling crisp coating is to fry fish in small batches. Too many pieces will cool the oil, and the fish will be soggy and greasy. Serve with your favorite chips. The Cod Clan: Atlantic pollack, haddock, and hake are among the members of the extensive cod family. Although these fish vary slightly in terms of texture and flavor, one can generally be substituted for another. Small cod are often called scrod and can certainly be used here. Beer is your best bet to accompany this recipe. If you opt to drink wine, look for one that will mimic beer's palate-cleansing qualities. Try a reasonably priced sparkling wine or an acidic white such as a pinot grigio from Italy.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 scallion, including green top chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped dilled gherkins
1 tablespoon chopped capers
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
salt
fresh ground black pepper
cooking oil, for frying (approximately 1 quart)
1 cup flour
1 egg, beaten to mix
1 cup beer
2 lbs haddock or 2 lbs hake, cut into approximately 1 1/2-by-3-inch pieces

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.

BEER-BATTERED FLUKE WITH JALAPENO TARTAR SAUCE



Beer-Battered Fluke with Jalapeno Tartar Sauce image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

8 cups neutral oil, like canola, for frying
3 1/2 cups instant flour, such as Wondra
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 large eggs
20 ounces beer, such as an IPA or wheat
1 1/2 pounds fluke fillets, cut into 4-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Sea salt, for serving
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 cup picked fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pickled jalapeno, seeded and minced, plus a splash of pickling liquid, optional
Zest and juice of 1 lime
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

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.)

BEER BATTERED FISH WITH DIPPING SAUCE



Beer Battered Fish With Dipping Sauce image

This is another recipe I made for a seafood platter night it was really good and again the ingredients listed below are just a guess for 4 people I think it will be about right. As I said in previous posts because I was making this as part of a large platter I cut back on everything because of all the dishes I made. I am also listing 2 of the sauces I made below; The lemon mayonnaise I served with the fish and the twist on the more traditional cocktail sauce I served with the prawns and crab meat. The lobster tails I made from French Tarts Recipe#288456 I wanted a quick easy recipe that would taste great and not take too long as I was going to be busy preparing other dishes this was perfect.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: White fish, such as cod, haddock, or pollock, are best for beer battering. They have a mild flavor that won't overpower the batter.
  • Make sure the fish is dry: Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels before coating them in batter. This will help the batter adhere to the fish.
  • Use a light beer: A light beer will produce a light and crispy batter. Avoid using a dark or heavy beer, as it will make the batter too dense.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make it tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fry the fish in hot oil: The oil should be hot enough to fry the fish quickly, but not so hot that it burns the batter.
  • Drain the fish on paper towels: After frying, drain the fish on paper towels to remove any excess oil.

Conclusion:

Beer-battered fish is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. By following these tips, you can make sure your beer-battered fish turns out perfect every time.
