Beer Battered Fish Fry
Use this light, crispy batter on your recent catch, for the best fish-fry all season! Cut up some potatoes into fries or jo-jo's and batter 'em up too! Roll your favorite veggies in it, and throw them in the fryer. Onions, Broccoli, Zuchini and Carrots come to mind.
Fish prepared this way makes an amazing fish taco! Slice a piece on the diagnol and place into a warm corn tortilla with shredded lettuce and aioli sauce. Mmmmmm.
Fish on!
