Chef Marcus Samuelsson, of New York City's Restaurant Aquavit, adds dill to the beer-based batter, giving this lunch or dinner entree a distinctly Scandinavian twist.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes     Salmon Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 14

Canola oil, for frying
2 sprigs fresh dill, finely chopped
1 bottle beer (preferably Pilsner)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
Juice of 2 limes (about 3 tablespoons)
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dredging fish
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking powder
20 ounces firm-fleshed fish (such as salmon, tuna, or fresh anchovies), cut into 3 1/2-by-1-inch strips
Lemon and lime wedges, for garnish
Marcus's Tempura Fries
Marcus's Aioli

Steps:

  • In a deep pot, heat 3 inches of oil over medium-high heat until it registers 360 degrees on a deep-frying thermometer.
  • In a medium bowl, combine dill, beer, soy sauce, lime juice, salt, and pepper. In another medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Carefully pour the beer mixture into the flour mixture, and stir until combined. Chill batter in refrigerator, about 20 minutes.
  • Pat fish dry with paper towels. Dredge fish lightly in flour. Remove batter from refrigerator. Coat each piece of fish, one by one, with the chilled batter. Transfer immediately to the hot oil in batches. Fry until just lightly golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon or tongs, gently transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain, about 2 minutes. Return fish to the hot oil, and fry again until golden brown. The cooking time will vary depending on the variety of fish. Drain on a clean paper towel-lined baking sheet, and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with lemon and lime wedges, tempura fries, and aioli.

Tips:

  • To make perfect tempura fries, use a light and fluffy batter. A good ratio is 1 cup all-purpose flour to 1/2 cup cornstarch, with 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  • Make sure the batter is cold before frying. This will help the batter stay crispy.
  • Use a light oil for frying, such as vegetable oil or canola oil. Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit before frying the fries.
  • Fry the fries in small batches so that they don't crowd the pan. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the fries. They should be golden brown and crispy on the outside, but still soft and fluffy on the inside.
  • Serve the tempura fries immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Tempura fries are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They're perfect for parties or potlucks, and they're also a great way to use up leftover vegetables.
