Recipe

Preparation Time: 4 mins Cook Time: 5 mins Ready Time: 9 mins


• heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• pour into the pancake mix container in place of the water it calls for. make the batter as thick or thin as you prefer. close the lid, give it a few shakes, and boom it's done.
• dip fish into the batter using a pair of tongs, or if you want to dirty a dish, pour the batter in a bowl first. if you cut your fish into smaller pieces, you can toss them into the container, close the lid and shake it a couple of times, then carefully remove the coated pieces.
• remove the fish from the batter using tongs, and place into the hot oil. fry the fish until golden brown on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
