Long John Silvers Batter mix

By Pattywak

This copycat recipe tastes like the batter on the fish and chicken at Long John Silver's. You can mix the dry ingredients ahead of time and add water just before frying.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 4 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups hot water (Kerry says to use ginger ale instead of water)

Preparation

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, sift dry ingredients. Add the water and mix together very well. Completely cover and coat 8 fish or chicken fillets with the batter. Deep fry until golden brown.
