Beer Battered Lemon Sole

22 May 2012 By Charlotte Pike 6 Comments

Beer battered lemon sole

An easy and tasty supper – much nicer than what you’ll find in your average chip shop too I reckon. The strength of the beer you use will affect the flavour of the batter – this one I used did have a distinctive flavour, so use a lighter lager if you would rather not have the flavour of beer coming through.

Beer battered lemon sole

Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 1-2 lemon sole fillets per person depending on hunger
  • 225g self-raising flour
  • 300ml cold beer
  • 1-2 litres sunflower oil for frying (depending on the size of your pan)

Method

1) Mix the flour and beer buy gabapentin tablets together in a bowl and set aside for 30 minutes

2) After 30 minutes is up, heat the oil in a large pan (preferably non-stick). Do not use a cast iron pan or else this is likely to stick

3) When the oil is shimmering hot, dip the fish fillets into the batter and drop them into the oil and cook for around 3 minutes on each side. Turn the fish over using a metal utensil very gently so as not to damage the fish

4) Once the fish is cooked, serve immediately with chips, or wedges as I did here

    was looking for a great recipe for fish, this one sounds great, and since my last name is Thwaites, I think I’ll give it a try. ….will have to use Canadian beer though since I’m in Canada and Thwaites beer is not sold here.

      Totally up to you, Stewart, but it won’t affect how it cooks. I prefer the skin off, but that’s just me!
