Ingredients
- 4 pieces cod fillets
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup low-carb beer
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cups oil for frying
Directions
Step 1
Start by patting dry the cod fillets with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.
Step 3
Beat the egg in a small bowl and add it to the dry mixture, along with the low-carb beer and olive oil.
Step 4
Stir the batter until it reaches a smooth and thick consistency. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Step 5
Heat the oil for frying in a large skillet over medium heat. The oil should reach approximately 350°F (175°C) before frying.
Step 6
Dip each piece of cod into the batter, ensuring an even coat all the way around each fillet.
Step 7
Carefully place the battered cod fillets into the hot oil, cooking them in batches to avoid overcrowding in the skillet.
Step 8
Fry the fillets for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Once cooked, remove the cod from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 10
Serve the low-carb beer battered cod immediately with your choice of low-carb dipping sauce or sides.
