This was pretty good. The batter wasn't necessarily spongy, but it wasn't flaky, either. It was very similar to pancakes.

I only had to add a bit cracked pepper to the dry ingredients and a wee bit of water to thin it up slightly. The flavor and the consistency with tilapia fillets was superb. It's a keeper.

I've done it many times. It's a success. But, everyone who does it should adjust the batter's ingredients because, as example, the quality of the four changes the consistence of the whole thing. Also it's necessary a lot of very hot oil.

Very easy to make, but it needs flavor, and it still didn't come out like the UK Fish and Chips. The batter was tough and not flaky/crispy. It also did not brown up as it should have, even after I raised the temperature. Sorry, but this fried fish didn't make it!

The best batter I have ever made. Be sure and add the beaten egg last.
