"Plan ahead the batter needs to sit for one hour before using, the amounts listed will be enough for 2 pounds of fish I also like to add in 1 teaspoon garlic powder or season as desired… If you intend on frying the whole piece of fish it is recommended to use thinner fish fillets, or you may slice the thicker fillets into large chunks. If you don't want to use beer, try the no beer beerless fish batter linked below. You'll find a gluten-free option linked below as well."
