Ingredients | Beer Battered Gulf Shrimp

1 (9.74 ounce) package Idahoan Signature™ Russets Mashed Potatoes

1 cup flour

2 tablespoons cornstarch

½ teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ cup sriracha hot sauce

1 (12 ounce) can beer

2 pounds cod fillets, cut into serving-size pieces

4 cups vegetable oil for deep frying, or as needed

1 teaspoon salt

Directions

Prepare Idahoan Signature™ Russets Mashed Potatoes according to package instructions. Keep warm.

Combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and sriracha hot sauce in a large bowl. Stir until combined. Add beer and continue to stir until batter is smooth. Place pieces of fish to the bowl and coat all sides evenly coated with the batter.

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cook fish fillets in batches until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain cooked fillets on a wire rack. Season with salt.

Serve with a side of Idahoan Signature™ Russets Mashed Potatoes.

Cod can be replaced with tilapia, catfish, or other white fish of your choice.

Club soda can be substituted for the beer.

We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.
