Ingredients
10-15 (60 g) pieces of monkfish or gurnard or John Dory.
2 eggs
1 bottle (340 ml) of lager
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp turmeric
SIDS SALT & PEPPER to taste
1 cup flour
2 litres rice bran oil, for frying
LEMON GARLIC MAYONNAISE:--
3 cloves garlic
Zest of 1 lemon
½ tsp SIDS CRAZY LEMON
2 tbsp SIDS RASPBERRY HONEY MAYO
Directions
Combine SIDS RASPBERRY HONEY MAYO, garlic, lemon zest and SIDS CRAZY LEMON. Set aside until ready to serve. This can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for a week.
Place oil in a deep fry pan or pot and heat to 190°C.
Whisk eggs together in a bowl. Add beer, baking soda, baking powder, and turmeric then whisk together. Season with SIDS SALT & PEPPER. Batter should be relatively thin. Place SIDS SALT & PEPPER and flour in a separate bowl and stir to combine.
Slice monkfish into 5 cm chunks. Coat the fish in seasoned flour. Dunk the pieces of fish into the batter and place them into the oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown. Remove with tongs to a paper towel-lined plate. Season immediately.
Transfer fried monkfish to a plate, squeeze fresh lemon juice over top and serve with lemon garlic mayonnaise.
