- To mix ingredients evenly, sift together flour, salt and baking powder 3 times; transfer into a bowl.
- Slowly pour in already mixed together milk and water, whipping using a wire whip, until smooth.
- Leave batter to sit for 15 to 20 minutes before using.
- Cut fish fillets on the bias into servings, so that they will look bigger and will cook better.
- Completely coat each piece with batter removing excess batter by wiping pieces on the edge of the bowl.
- Preheat fat to 375°F [190°C] into a deep-fryier.
- Half immerse fish pieces into hot fat holding pieces in for a few seconds only.
- Deep-fry fish pieces for approximately 10 minutes, until golden brown.
- Using a slotted spoon or a skimmer, gently turn fish pieces over and fry until golden brown on other side; drain and serve.
