This is the 1st recipe I have ever posted. So I'm kinda of nervous about this. I love to cook and come up with new recipes that I think my family will like. Not only did they like these; they loved them! I hope you will like them too!

How To Make crispy fish tacos

  • 1
    Mix beer,cornstarch,salt and flour together to make fish batter. Set batter aside. If batter thicken too much add about another tablespoon of beer. Rinse fish pat dry and cut into 2 in. pieces. In large skillet heat oil (about 1 in. deep) to 360 degrees. Dip fish pieces in batter; put pieces in hot oil and fry until golden brown (about 2 to 3 min.) Remove fish from oil and drain. I prefer to use a rack to drain the fish on; using paper towels tends to make to fish stick to the paper towels.
  • 2
    For cabbage topping; put first 7 ingredients in food processor. Pulse until all indgredients are blended. Add shredded cabbage and mix well. I usually make the cabbage topping and put it in the refrigerator before I fry the fish so the cabbage topping can get cold.
  • 3
    Heat tortillas in foil in warm oven. This will make enough serving for 5 people to have 2 tacos each. Put fried fish on tortillas followed by cabbage mixture,chesse, salsa and a sqeeze of lime. Enjoy!
