as above or granny fay`s which is perfect every time, depth and temperature of fat/oil does make a difference

dezzie, Mar 27, 1:33am
flour baking powder, an orangepowder called yolkatine and water.

Had a F&C shop for a few years.Self raising flour water and a little egg yolk colouring( yellow) won local contest one year with it . Consistency should be a little more watery than yoghurt.

We useda leveltsp of baking soda to every cup of flour and then added water until relatively thin - just like muzza says above.

No specific amounts..All it is

Self raising flour
Bit of Baking powder
Water
Cap of Malt vinegar
Mix them up to a sort of less than watery consistency .. do not over mix the Batter..ie..don't keep playing with it..
Flour fish..dip in batter,,Drop or ease into pot of hot lard/dripping.

Mix that up to a sort of less than watery consistency . It should end up looking slightly airy and fluffy.do not over mix the Batter or you'll lose the fluffy crispy result.
Flour fish.dip in batter,,Drop or ease into pot of hot lard/dripping.
Fish should rise to the top almost instantly if the oil temperature is right.2mins or less and it's done.
