Tempura
Take a large bowl and put in the flour and cornstarch
Separate the eggs and add the yolks to the flour/cornstarch
Add 2/3 of the beer
Stir gently then firmly until you have a homogeneous mass.
If necessary, add the rest of the beer until you get the right thickness. The dough may be quite runny.
Let the tempura dough rest for 15 minutes
Fish
Cut the (almost) thawed fish fillets diagonally into strips of at least 1 centimeter. Because you cut diagonally, you can make "longer" strands.
Place the cut fish on paper towels in such a way as to absorb excess moisture.
Drizzle with lemon and season fish with salt and pepper
Bake
A few bakes to go? Then preheat the oven to 120°.
Heat the oil in a deep (wok) pan to around 170°
Dip a portion of fish in the tempura dough
1 by 1, remove the fish from the tempura dough, making sure the excess dough falls off and carefully place them in the oil
Leave each serving min. Fry for 3-5 minutes.
Place the fried fish on kitchen paper for a minute such that excess fat is absorbed.
Place the fried fish in a dish and sit in the oven.
Begin the next bake.
Serve
Scatter the fried fish on a plate
Sprinkle with sea salt
Choose your favorite dipping sauce, here I choose tartare
If you serve this as a main course then top this dish with (spinach) mashed potatoes or French fries.
