INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oil in a deep pan to 375 F. 2) Cut fish into wedges approx. 7" x
2"(wide end) x 1 1/2" (narrow end) 3) With mixer, blend flour, water,
egg, sugar, and salt. 4) Dip each fillet into the batter, coating
generoursly, and quickly drop into the oil. 5) Fry each fillet until
dark golden brown, about 5 min. 6) Remove from oil and place on paper
towels or metal rack to drain. Yeild: 4 to 6 fish fillets Soybean oil
is what your local Long John Silver's uses to fry their fish, and you
will best duplicate the real thing by using the same oil. But any
other oil may be substituted. You might want to try canola oil. It is
the oil lowest in saturated fat, and the taste difference is only
slight. It's crucial that your oil be hot before frying the fish. To
test the temp., drip some batter into the oil. It should bubble
rapidly. After 5 min., the test batter should become golden brown. If
so, fry away, fish fiends. Source: "Top Secret Recipes" by Todd Wilbur
