Fish Batter

I have been making batter for fish as long as I have been cooking. It has evolved over the years to where it is now. I have used prepared mixes, batters with a prepared mix plus added flour and other ingredients, beer batters, soda batters, but this is the recipe I have settled on.

Batter.

2 cups (500ml) all purpose flour.

2 tbls (30ml) baking powder.

1 tsp (5ml) white sugar.

1 tsp (5 ml) salt.

1 egg.

1 3/4 cup (450ml) cold water.

Mix dry ingredients.

add the egg and water and mix until the dry ingredients are mixed uniformly with the wet.
