Beer Batter
Ingredients
1 12 oz can light Beer
1 1/2 cups Flour
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Paprika
1 cup Flour
Directions
Pour the beer into a large bowl. Sift the flour, salt, and paprika into the beer, whisking until the batter is light and frothy. (The batter may be used immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, but be sure to whisk it occasionally). Heat at least 2 inches of oil in a frying kettle or electric fryer. Just before it reaches 375F, quickly dredge the fish and shrimp with flour, shaking of excess then dip in the beer batter, coating well, and drop them into the hot fat (do this in 2 batches). When they are brown on one side - less than 1 minute - turn and brown them on the other side. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot with lemon wedges

I just made this last night! 1 cup all-purpose flour, some garlic powder, cayenne, chili powder, salt and pepper, a beer, and a splash of water to consistency. It shouldn't be too thick.
Make the dredging mix just the same with more flour and seasonings but no beer or liquid. My fish comes out so puffy and flaky. My husband didn't believe I knew how to do it until he tried it and now he swears by it.

I use light beer when I make my batter. It seems to do the trick for me.

Just buy Golden Dipt batter mix at the store. It's the best.

I use Aunt Jemima pancake mix. Another one you can use is Uncle Bens batter mix, both are really good.
