Good ole fashioned English fish and chips batter. Just like mum used to make.
Well not really my mum, but my uncle who had a fish and chips shop. They actually used egg in the batter instead of beer, but thats another story and recipe for another day.. Today I made more traditional beer batter. Crispy crunchy light and delicious.
ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 bottle/can (12oz) beer
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
instructions
- Mix flour, baking powder and garlic powder if using.
- Mix in beer
- Season with salt and pepper to taste
- Some people let batter stand for 1 -3 hours. I’ve noticed little difference using it right away. So use when is most convenient for you.
