    List of Ingredients


    • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 cup flat beer or lemon lime flavored beverage
    • Vegetable oil
    • 4 medium russet potatoes, each cut into 8 wedges
    • Salt
    • 1 large egg, seperated
    • 1 pound of cod fillets


    Instructions


    1. Combine flour, beer, and 2 tsp. oil in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate 1-2 hours.
    2. Pour 2" of oil into a skillet and heat over medium heat until it is about 365 degrees and a bread cube placed in the oil is browned in about 45 seconds. Add enough potato wedges as will fit. Do not crowd. Fry potatoes until outsides are brown, 4-6 minutes turning once.
    3. Drain wedges on paper towels; sprinkle with salt. Remove to serving dish and keep warm. Repeat with remaining potato wedges. Reserve oil to fry cod fillets.
    4. Stir egg yolks into flour mixture. Beat egg white with mixer at high speed until soft peaks form. Fold egg white into flour mixture; set aside. Allow temperature of oil to return to 365. Rinse cod fillets and pat dry with paper towels. Cut fillets into 8 pieces into batter; fry until batter is crispy and brown and fish flakes easily with a fork, 4-6 minutes turning once.
    5. Drain on paper towels; keep warm. Repeat with remaining fish pieces. Serve immediately with potato wedges.
