Perfect as is. I added a bit of Old Bay only because I like the flavor.

This is a bit of a tricky recipe to get right. I agree it needs to be thinned out a little. The trick is letting the coating drip off a little and to fry for the proper length of time. Personally I prefer a thicker batter so I really like this basic recipe. If you want more taste just add your favourite spices. A great basic recipe.

Pretty good. Took earlier advice and added more beer to 2 servings. Added tons of old Bay seasoning - probably 3 tbsp. wasn't overseasoned at all. Used a/p flour with xtra cornstarch. Cut up two mahi mahi fillets. Very tasty and still had batter left over. Cooked more like 6-7 minutes to get extra crispy crust.

Loved this batter and as stated in the description it is a good basic recipe. I cut the recipe down to 2 servings as most reviews said it made a lot. We had three very large cod fillets and there was plenty of batter to do more. As written the mixture is way to thick, so additional beer was required to make it suitable to dip the fillets. I dredged the fish in flour before coating.The only other recommendation I have is more seasoning. It does lack flavor. Maybe some lemon pepper, dried dill weed, or cayenne for a zip.

Perfect! The only advice I would pass along (at the risk of looking silly) would be to make sure not to place the battered fish directly into the basket of the fryer (if using that style) as it will bond with it! Just place directly into the oil with out the basket and use tongs.

Used self-rising flour and added some paprika. Also used this to batter onion rings and it worked great.

Yummy! My husband loves fish and chips. He said this recipe was a 10. I didn't use garlic, but used Old Bay Seasoning.

Excellent batter, but this recipe is enough for at least 5-6 pounds of fish. Easily could be cut in half.

This was really good and easy to make. I would definitely add more seasoning... I added old bay as well and still not quite enough seasoning! If you are getting to much of a "breadlike" crust, you might not be frying it for long enough. Make sure it is crispy and golden brown before turning!

Doesn't even taste like a regular batter. Unless you like wrapping a dounut around your fish... Terrible.
