Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 20 min

Step 1:
Prepare the products. Eggs and milk should be cold, so the batter will taste better. Take spices to taste, you can only do with salt. Or take spices for fish. I just took ground pepper.
Step 2:
Mix milk and eggs in a bowl. You can stir with a whisk or a simple fork.
Step 3:
Add flour and seasonings, mix.
Step 4:
The batter should be homogeneous, without lumps, thick enough that it does not immediately drain from the product, but envelops it. Let it stand for a little now, for ten minutes, the gluten contained in the flour will swell, and the batter will be better.
Step 5:
Put the pieces of butchered fish in a bowl with batter. Fry the fish in a sufficient amount of oil on both sides until golden brown.

Choose fish for frying in batter that is not very fat, otherwise it may turn out to be too high-calorie dish. You can take both fillets and simply cut into pieces. Fish should be dried well before frying in batter.White sea fish is especially tasty in the batter, there are too many bones in the river. Any refined oil is suitable for frying, look at the amount of taste, but it should not be very small, the products in the batter are still fried in sufficient quantity. To remove excess fat, after frying, put the fish on a paper towel, it will absorb excess oil. Mineral water, kefir, beer, wine are also taken as a liquid for the batter. You can take mayonnaise, starch instead of flour, the batter with cheese will be very tasty. There are also lean versions of the batter, without eggs, they are well suited for those who observe fasting. Do not be afraid to add alcohol, it will evaporate during frying, only the taste will remain. You can fry in batter not only fish, but also meat, mushrooms, other seafood, vegetables, and even fruits.
