Fried Fish New Orleans Preparation
Place the fish and Tabasco sauce in a stainless-steel bowl. Let marinate for 20 minutes. Mix the batter by whipping the eggs, adding the water. Blend the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt and pepper together in a dry bowl, using a fork. Gently stir this into the egg/water mixture. Do not try to get out all the small lumps. It will not matter. Do not overmix. Heat 4 cups of peanut oil to 375 to 400 degrees. Dip the marinated fish squares into the batter, then deep-fry until light brown, about 4 minutes. This recipe serves 4. Comments: I do not deep-fry fish. I absolutely do not. I am a child of the Pacific Northwest and we would never do such a thing. However, when I was in New Orleans last, I tasted a dish close to this one. I must tell you how it is made.
