This is a great beer batter fish recipe, and is very easy to do. We often fish all day with friends, and then cook the fish afterwards out on deck. Beer Battered Fish is a classic pub food dinner made with fresh cod that's dipped into a batter of flour, eggs, beer, and seasoning, then fried until it's crispy and golden brown on the outside and flaky on.
To begin with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook beer battered fish & chips using 10 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Beer battered fish & chips:

- Prepare 1/4 cup buttermilk
- Prepare 1 fillet of fish (to your liking)
- Take 1 tablespoon dill

What could be better than that? While recently researching various beer-batter recipes online, I discovered an interesting revelation. Always dust your fish in flour before coating it in batter, which helps the crust stick to it. And what a fish recipe this is.
Steps to make Beer battered fish & chips:
- Start by removing the bones from the fish of your choice and cutting to size - I used a basa fillet and cut it in half.
- Combine the juice of both the lemon and lime in a bowl along with the dill and parsley, both coarsely chopped. Add garlic and chilli to your liking.
- Now marinade the fish in the lemon/lime mixture for about 20mins-30mins.
- Whilst the fish is marinading, begin to prep the batter by combining the cornflour, beer and buttermilk in a bowl - briskly whisk until smooth. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Set the batter aside and rinse your potatoes, ready to peel. Once peeled, pat dry and place on chopping board.
- Slice the potatoes into thick "matchsticks" and softly boil for 3 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
- Place oil in a shallow frying pan and set heat to medium, letting the oil warm up (It should be hot enough to cook a bread cube in about 30 seconds)
- While the oil is warming up begin to coat the marinated fish fillets in the beer batter, covering thoroughly.
- Once the oil is hot enough place your battered fish into the pan, letting each side cook for 2 minutes per side or until golden brown.
- Place the fish to the side to rest while you cook the chips - the oil should still be warm enough for you to place the precut chips in the pan immediately.
- Once chips are nice and crispy, drain away the oil and place on a plate with the rested fish - garnish with a sprig of parsley and a lemon wedge.
The batter is a mix of flour and cornstarch, which comes out shatteringly crisp and remarkably un-greasy. A nice English ale is the preferred beer of choice, though I imagine. Beer battered fish has always been one of my favorite recipes to cook. I've experimented over the years with different beers and different methods, however, I think I've honed in on the perfect. Dip one floured fish fillet into the batter until thoroughly coated.
