Fish Fingers

We are all trying to eat healthier these days. But, that doesn't mean we can't indulge sometimes too.
Actually, foods that are deep fried at the correct temperature absorb very little oil.  And you should use
healthy oil such as Canola Oil as long as the cooking temperature isn't too high. You will enjoy these and the kids will Love them.

Fish Fingers

Oil for Cooking
2 lbs Cod fillets, cut into 3 ounce pieces

Batter:
2 Eggs  
1 cup Dark Beer or Ale
1 teaspoonful Salt
1 1/2 cups Flour
1 teaspoonful Baking Powder

In a mixing bowl lightly whip the eggs.  Add all other ingredients in the order listed. Whisk to combine until almost all lumps are gone.

In a large pot, add 3 inches of oil and heat until oil reached 350 degrees on a thermometer.
Dip each fish portion into the batter and let excess drip back into bowl. Gently add to cooking oil, laying away from you to avoid splashing. Repeat with other portions. Do not over crowd pan.
Cook, turning once until golden brown.  Remove and drain on paper towels.
