Ingredients

• 500 grams white fish fillets
• 100 grams cornstarch
• 100 grams rice flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 180 milliliters water
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 500 milliliters vegetable oil
• 2 pieces lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Begin by patting the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Cut the fish into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornstarch, rice flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.

Step 3

Gradually whisk in the water to the dry mixture, stirring continuously until you achieve a smooth and slightly thick batter. Adjust the consistency with a little more water if necessary.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or pot over medium-high heat until it reaches approximately 180°C (350°F). To test, drop a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle and float to the surface.

Step 5

Dip each fish piece into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Carefully lower the battered fish into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding.

Step 6

Fry the fish bites for about 3-4 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 7

Repeat the process until all fish pieces are cooked.

Step 8

Serve the crispy fish bites hot, garnished with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.
