Recipe type: Main
Serves: 6-10 tacos
Ingredients
  • 200 g firm white fish (I use tilapia)
  • 1.5 cup beer
  • 2 cups flour
  • Salt and pepper
  • Canola or vegetable oil, for frying
  • .
  • Sriracha-Hoisin Drizzle:
  • ½ cup plain yogurt or mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp sriracha (or to taste)
  • 1.5 tsp hoisin sauce
  • ¼ tsp sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp lime juice
  • .
  • 1 mango, peeled and diced
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 cup sui choy or savoy cabbage, chopped into strips
  • 1 small bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped
  • 6-10 small flour tortillas
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, mix together the drizzle ingredients, adjusting as needed to suit your own tastes and heat levels. Set aside.
  2. Prep all the toppings: mango, avocado, cabbage and cilantro. Set aside.
  3. Slice fish into 1-2 inch pieces. In a medium bowl mix 1 cup of flour with some salt and pepper and set aside. In a separate bowl, mix the second cup of flour with the beer and mix until just incorporated.
  4. Heat 1 inch of oil in a shallow pan and prep your fish station: 1 bowl seasoned flour, 1 bowl batter, 1 platter fish pieces, 1 large plate covered in paper towel and/or cooling racks (for when the fish is cooked). Dredge a piece of fish in the flour then the batter then gently place it in the heated oil. If the oil is up to temperature, it should start sizzling right away but if you find the oil browns the fish too quickly, turn the heat down a bit.
  5. Using tongs, flip the pieces of frying fish until they are golden brown on each side then place on the paper towel/cooling racks. Repeat until all pieces of fish are cooked- make sure not to fry too many pieces at once as they will stick together and cool the oil down too much.
  6. Serve the fish hot, wrapped in a small tortilla with mango, avocado, cabbage, cilantro and a healthy drizzle of sriracha-hoisin sauce!
