Ingredients

  • 4 Large Russet Potatoes
  • 1 teaspoon Red Curry Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1- 1/2 cup India Pale Ale Beer
  • 1/4 cups Cornstarch
  • 4 Mahi-Mahi Filets
  • Oil, For Frying
  • Lemon Wedges, Optional For Serving

Method

  • For the potatoes: Preheat the oven to 425 F.
  • Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise and then slice in half again lengthwise so you end up with long potato fingers, as I like to call them.
  • Put them on a rimmed baking tray, in a single layer.
  • Mix all of the spices together in a small bowl.
  • Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the spices onto the fries along with the olive oil.
  • Mix together with your hands until the potatoes are coated thoroughly.
  • Set aside.
  • Add about 3 inches of oil into your frying device (large Dutch oven or heavy bottomed pot).
  • Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches about 300 F.
  • Place the potatoes in the oven to bake for 20 minutes, stirring them halfway through.
  • For the fish: Whisk the flour, baking soda and salt together with the beer in a medium size bowl.
  • Dust the Mahi-Mahi with cornstarch on each side.
  • Dip the fish into the beer batter and place in the hot oil, frying each side for 2-3 minutes.
  • Remove fish from the oil using a spatula and set on a paper towel to drain some of the grease.
  • Serve fish with the potatoes and slices of lemon and enjoy.
