    Recipe by BREESE823: "I'm from San Diego and these taste just like home! We live in the south now, and nobody has heard of these! Serve with homemade pico de gallo, and lime wedges to squeeze on top!"

    Ingredients:
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    2 tablespoons cornstarch
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 egg
    1 cup beer


    1/2 cup plain yogurt
    1/2 cup mayonnaise
    1 lime, juiced
    1 jalapeno pepper, minced
    1 teaspoon minced capers
    1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
    1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed
    1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

    1 quart oil for frying
    1 pound cod fillets, cut into 2 to 3 ounce portions
    1 (12 ounce) package corn tortillas
    1/2 medium head cabbage, finely shredded

    Directions:
    To make beer batter: In a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Blend egg and beer, then quickly stir into the flour mixture (don't worry about a few lumps).

    To make white sauce: In a medium bowl, mix together yogurt and mayonnaise. Gradually stir in fresh lime juice until consistency is slightly runny. Season with jalapeno, capers, oregano, cumin, dill, and cayenne.

    Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

    Dust fish pieces lightly with flour. Dip into beer batter, and fry until crisp and golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Lightly fry tortillas; not too crisp.

    To serve, place fried fish in a tortilla, and top with shredded cabbage, and white sauce.
