The post Try Making Your Own Battered Fish appeared first on foodisinthehouse.com.
]]>Ingredients:
- 4 fillets of white fish (such as cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup of cold sparkling water or beer
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- Lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or malt vinegar, for serving (optional)
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Gradually pour in the cold sparkling water or beer while continuing to whisk, until a smooth batter forms. The batter should have a consistency similar to pancake batter—thick enough to coat the fish but still pourable.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- Dip each fish fillet into the batter, ensuring it is evenly coated on all sides. Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil, using tongs to avoid splattering.
- Fry the fish for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the batter is golden brown and crispy and the fish is cooked through. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fish fillets. Once cooked, transfer the battered fish to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the fish hot, accompanied by lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or malt vinegar, if desired. Enjoy the satisfying crunch and succulent flavor of homemade Battered Fish, perfect for a cozy dinner at home or a fun family meal!

]]>Select Your Swimmer
Fish that is on the firmer side holds up better on the grill, so go for something like salmon, tuna, or swordfish. Filleted pieces work best and you can leave the skin on if you’re concerned about the fish falling apart. Try to keep the pieces at a uniform thickness to ensure that they don’t overcook.
Add Some Flavor
Just like meat, fish benefits from being marinated. Place the pieces in a citrus-based marinade for 15-30 minutes before cooking to allow the flavors to infuse. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different spices and herbs, garlic, and citrus slices.
Showtime
As a general rule, you want to cook the fish for about 4-6 minutes per side for every ½ inch of thickness. For thicker cuts, use indirect heat by placing the fish to the side of the heat source. However, direct heat is fine for thinner cuts. Once cooked, let the fish rest for a few minutes before serving.

]]>Brightness
Fresh fish should have a vibrant color. Tuna should be a deep red, while salmon may have a bright orange or pink hue. The color should also be consistent throughout, so avoid pieces with brown or gray patches.
Texture
Fish that is sashimi-grade should be smooth, without any fibrous or mushy consistency. It should feel slightly firm to the touch. The texture should be delicate enough that it feels like it’s melting in your mouth.
Smell
Contrary to popular belief, fish shouldn’t actually smell fishy. That strong odor we associate with fish is an indication that it is probably not the freshest. You want your fish to have a mild scent of the ocean.

(@chefnickaz)Freezing
Freezing fish at low temperatures is a common method to kill any potential parasites. Some species of fish require freezing for a specific duration of time to ensure safety, but what you don’t want is fish that has been fully frozen and then thawed out.

]]>Labels are Important
When eating fish, one thing you can do to give you a little bit of peace of mind is to read the labels. Certain certifications, such as MSC, which stands for Marine Stewardship Council, or ASC, which stands for Aquaculture Stewardship Council, are generally well-reputable indicators of healthy prepared fish.
Always Fresh
Another thing that’s important to consider is the freshness of the fish. While other foods might hold up better when left out for some time, that’s not the case when it comes to fish. Be mindful of how the fish smells, because it’s better to be safe than sorry if you smell something funky.
Proper Prepping
Finally, something that really helps optimize the health of the fish you eat is preparing it properly. From freezing it after it’s caught (which should’ve already been done before you bought it) to cooking it in the oven, this can also ensure that the fish you eat is healthy.

]]>High Protein Content
One of the most important benefits of fish is its high protein content. Protein is essential for building and repairing tissues in the body, and fish is a great source of high-quality protein that is easily digested and absorbed.
Plenty of Vitamins
Fish is also an excellent source of essential vitamins and minerals. It contains vitamin D, which is important for maintaining strong bones and teeth, as well as B vitamins, which are important for energy production and healthy skin, hair, and nails.
Antioxidants
In addition, fish is loaded with antioxidants that can help protect your body from damage caused by free radicals. These antioxidants can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease, and they can also help slow the aging process.
Good for Mental Health
Eating fish regularly can also help improve your mood and mental health. The omega-3 fatty acids found in fish have been shown to improve brain function, reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, and even help prevent age-related cognitive decline.

]]>Tuna and Cucumber Sandwich
A truly great combination, this classic sandwich is delicious, refreshing, and bursting with flavor. Simply mix a can of tuna with a dollop of mayonnaise, butter the bread, and add slices of fresh cucumber. For best results, use tuna that is canned in sunflower oil rather than brine.
Tuna Pasta Salad
Simply boil a batch of pasta, drain it, and stir in one or two bowls of tuna mayonnaise. Before serving, mix in sweetcorn, lettuce, spinach, and parsley.
Tuna Potato Salad
Follow the same instructions as for the pasta salad, but substitute potato for the pasta. All you have to do is slice all-rounder potatoes into medium-sized chunks and boil them on the stove for 20 minutes.
Tuna Baked Potato
When the potato is nice and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, mash some melted butter into it. Then add the portion of tuna mayonnaise with cucumber, sweetcorn, lettuce, and red onion.
