Ingredients

White Sauce:

1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup milk
4 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon garlic salt

Fish Tacos:

Oil
2 packages Tempura Batter Mix
1 can beer
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
24 ounces boneless cod, cut into 2-inch pieces
6 corn tortillas
2 cups shredded cabbage
2 limes

Directions

For the sauce:

Mix all ingredients together and set aside.

Preheat a fryer or a deep pot halfway filled with oil to 375 degrees F.

Mix 1 of the packages of batter, but only use 1/2 the required amount of water and use beer for the remaining amount instead. Add the beer until the batter becomes almost like a heavy cream consistency.

Using the other package of batter add salt and garlic powder, coat cod pieces with the dry mix, then dip into prepared batter. Deep-fry for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Place fried cod pieces on warmed corn tortillas, add white sauce to fish, a little shredded cabbage and a squeeze of lime, to taste.

This recipe was great!! Here's a couple ideas for you to make the recipe even better...#1 Add some Old Bay seasoning to the... tempura batter mix. #2 finely chop a jalapeno and add it to the white sauce #3 Set the sauce in the refrigerator while you prepare your fish so all of the flavors come together. #4 prepare a pico de gallo to eat with the tacos #5 use a wheat beer. If you do all of these things you will have a restaurant quality meal that your guest or family are sure to love.Read more

FABULOUS
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These tacos are the best! I have made them several times. I have a couple of extra tips. A mexican blend shredded cheese... and pico de gallo are great toppers. For the beer batter, if you substitute a sparkling water instead of still water, the batter will turn out a lot nicer. I tried this the last time I made these and the difference was huge and delicious. Enjoy!Read more

Unexpectedly Yummy!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

We love fish tacos, so thought we would try out this recipe. I figured the fish and batter itself seemed pretty basic...but... the sauce sounded odd. After I made the sauce, tried it alone and thought "yuk" and didn't think it would be any good. Suprisingly the sauce with the combination of the fish and cabbage and corn tortillas was awesome! My kids loved it so much they begged me to make it again the next day. I agree that spicing up the sauce a little might make it even better and a little cilantro would be great to add. Read more

AWESOME!

I made this for my family and they loved it! I added cilnatro to the white sauce and used catfish instead of cod. This is a... great recipe! Reminds me of the fish tacos we ate while in Mexico!Read more

great sauce!

The white sauce made the dish! I've also used it on grilled fish tacos with a simple southwestern slaw -- very good!
