Рецепт Fish Fry
Here is yet another traditional Lent recipe.
This recipe I tried to keep close to my southern roots.
Here in the south we have fish fries almost every week.
The batter for this fish stays really crispy.
I used a drum fish for this, but you could use any firm fish you can find.
Catfish is excellent with this.
Hush puppies and french fries usually accompany this.
Its kinda like peanut butter and jelly.
You don't serve one without the other.
At the bottom of this post, I added my own version of Tarter Sauce.
Last year when we were vacationing in North Carolina, we went to a local restaurant.
I commented on how great the Tarter Sauce was and the server gave me the recipe right there and then.
So now, when ever I eat fish or clams and such I use this Tarter Sauce.
