1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground white pepper
2 cups beer (Gott recommends Sierra Nevada or Anchor Steam)

Frying oil (vegetable, canola, or soybean)
1 pound mahi mahi (substitute halibut), sliced into narrow, 1-ounce strips

METHOD
For the Beer Batter:
Whisk together the flour, salt, and pepper. Slowly whisk in the beer and then the eggs and Tabasco®.
For the Fried Mahi Mahi:
Heat frying oil to between 360ºF and 375ºF in a tall pot. Using kitchen tongs, take one piece of fish at a time and dip into the batter. Let the excess better run off and then gently put the battered fish into the hot oil. Fish is done when the batter is a deep golden color; transfer to paper towel-lined platter.
