Baja Style Fish Tacos (OT)
#1
Just thought I'd pass this one along. Yeah, I know most people have their own recipe. This one is very good though. Enjoy

Ingredients: 1 - 2 lb of your favorite fresh fish fillets, cut lengthwise into strips, 1 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 2 eggs separated, 1/2 cup beer or water, oil necessary for frying corn or flour tortillas, warmed to soften, shredded cabbage, 2 tablespoons minced onions, raw onion slices marinated in vinegar with a pinch of oregano, 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 1 garlic clove minced, 1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 lemon cut into wedges.

Dry the fish filet strips with paper towels.Mix the flour, salt, pepper, vegetable oil , beer and egg yolks to form a batter. Beat the egg whites until stiff and fold into the mixture. Mix the mayonnaise and sour cream or plain yogurt to make a white sauce. Stir in the minced onion and garlic. Add lemon juice to taste. In a large skillet, heat oil to a depth of 1 inch. Dip each fish strip in the batter, fry quickly on one side, turning to fry the other until golden brown. This should only take a couple of minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels.Serve fish in softened tortillas accompanied by the shredded cabbage, cilantro, marinated onions, white sauce and a selection of salsas.

Good Munching, Kayote

ps. This is not the same fish taco recipe I posted last year.

OH man!!! You've got me salivating. Fish tacos are the BEST! That is what we've been using the perch for that we've been catching. I think perch flesh has the perfect flavor and consistency for tacos.

The best part about this recipe is the white sauce with garlic and onion. It makes it. Dang, I'm hungry too.

Good Eating, Kayote
