I’ll let y’all in on a little secret – I’m full of them today – this batter makes a great onion ring as well. These fries are just gonna get a little dunking in oil before they get out on the plate. We just want to roll them around a little bit and give a light coating. To make these fries so crispy you can’t barely stand it, we are gonna change this batter up just a little – take what’s left over and add some more beer to it until the consistency is that of a runny pancake batter. Well, if we are going to dress up the fish in a fancy petticoat, I think we have got to dress up the taters, as well. By the time these fish are fried to a golden color, they’re ready to eat! Throw the fish of equal sizes into the batter together and add to the oil one by one. Tip: After patting dry, dust the fish with a good amount of corn starch so that the batter will stick to it. Add that beer and mix until the batter is the consistency a little thicker than a good pancake batter and no clumps stick to it when you lift it out of the bowl. When the oil is the right temperature, it’s time to beer the batter up! I’m using Coors Light today but traditionally, a darker ale is used. The cold makes them behave better things are going to be crispier and they pop up bigger. Tip: If you have time before the oil is hot, set the fish and dry mix into the ice box. You can put it in the batter or season the fish after, either way it will be delicious. Don’t for get to add the Red River Original Seasoning. This is the traditional batter with flour, cornstarch and beer. Tip: Cut the fish into equal sizes so they have an equal amount of time in the fryer. Make sure you pat that fish dry with a paper towel, which will allow the batter to stick to it better. You know what we do have in the ponds here in Oklahoma? Catfish. Traditionally, these are made with cod, but there’s not a whole lot of cod in the fishing ponds here in Oklahoma. Now on to that fish – any white fish will do. Tip: Soaking potatoes in cold water removes the starch and makes the crispiest, crunchiest fries you ever saw. That means you got all the starch out of these fries and they are going to be extra crispy. Keep on with this until the water stays clear. After a little while, the water is going to get cloudy, so drain it out and add more. Now, throw those taters in the bowl and cover them with some water.
