Basic Recipe
100g (4oz) Plain flour
2x5ml (2tsp) baking powder

150ml (1/4 pint) water
1x15ml (1tbsp oil
(1) Mix flour, baking powder and salt. Gradually beat in water and oil.
(2) Deep fat fry in oil heated to180C, 350F.
The batter should be thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon and the consistency of double cream.
This crisp, golden batter is ideal for coating fish and vegetables e.g. Mushrooms, onion rings, cauliflower as well as fruit.

Margie's Beer Batter for Fish
Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Fish And Seafood
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 cups corn meal
1 cup flour
3 whole eggs
salt and pepper -- to taste
2 cans beer
Mix dry ingredients, add eggs, then add beer until batter is at desired
consistency. The thicker the batter the thicker the breading will be on
the fish.
Can be deep-fried or pan-fried. When pan-frying use a generous amount
of oil, 3/4 of the fillet should be covered. Be sure oil (Crisco works
best) is pre-heated to the point that the fish begins frying as soon as
it is placed in the skillet. Test with drops of water if unsure.
Fish is done when lightly browned on both sides.

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://biturl.im/aUCCH
The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Mix beer and plain flour until it's a batter consistency. The alcohol in the beer will evaporate during frying.

Just use a package of cornbread mix. Decrease liquid a little then drop by spoonfuls in hot oil or shortening.
