Listed in: Fish

3 lb fish fillets; firm, white
2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup milk -- or more as needed
2 cup flour
3 cup pancake mix
2 cup club soda (approx.)
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1 cooking oil

Cut fish fillets in half, making triangular shape. Cover with milk and lemon juice and refrigerate 3-4 hours. Drain off milk. Dip fillets in flour to coat each piece lightly. Letdry on a cookie sheet, making sure pieces do not tough.

Add oil to deep fryer or heavy pan to a depth of at least 3 inches. Heat oil to 425~. Combine pancake mix, basil, pepper, garlic salt and enough soda to make a thick batter, about the consistency of buttermilk. Dip floured fillets in batter and add to the hot oil one at a time. Fry 4-5 minutes.

Remove filets to cookie sheet, again, not letting them touch and keep warm in a 250~ oven. Deep fry remaining filets, keeping the depth of the oil at least 3 inches. NOTE: Do notheap fish as this creates steam in theoven and makes coating soft.

Yield: 6 servings
