Steps:
- For the Beer Batter:
- Mix the flour, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Gradually add in the beer while whisking. Set aside and let the batter rest for 15 minutes before using.
- For Cream Sauce:
- Add the mayonnaise and crema to a medium bowl. Whisk in the lemon zest, lemon juice and water. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper (can be made 3 days ahead, covered and refrigerated).
- For the Fish:
- In a large skillet, over medium heat, add enough oil to reach a depth of 1-inch. Heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F or when the end of a wooden spoon sizzles when inserted into the oil.
- On a large plate, combine the flour and salt. Season the fish pieces all over with salt and pepper and coat with the flour. Working in batches, dip the fillets in the beer batter and coat on both sides. Fry in the hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Make tacos with the tortillas and fish and top each with cream, shredded cabbage, tomatillo salsa and pickled jalapenos, if desired.
- *Cook's Note: Crack open a cold Mexican cerveza like a Negra Modelo or a 2 Equis (XX) Amber to make this tasty beer batter, which will change the way you think about fried fish! You can use it for vegetables, too.
- **Cook's Note: Mexican Crema is Mexico's version of creme fraiche and is found at many supermarkets and can easily be substituted with sour cream.
CRISPY CORN AND BEER-BATTERED FISH TACOS
Steps:
- Lightly sprinkle the cod with salt and pepper. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Chill, uncovered, at least 1 hour and up to overnight (this air-dries the surface so the batter will adhere better to the fish).
- Whisk the flour, cornmeal, seasoned salt, paprika, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl. Add the beer, club soda and vinegar and whisk just until combined and no lumps remain.
- Fit a large heavy pot with a deep-frying thermometer; pour in oil to a depth of 3 inches. Heat over medium-high heat until the thermometer registers 375 degrees F.
- Working in batches, dip the fish into the batter, allowing excess batter to drip back into the bowl. Lower the fish carefully into the oil and fry until light golden brown and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Serve the fried fish with the warm tortillas, pico de gallo, hot sauce, pickled vegetables, lime wedges, avocado, cilantro and cabbage.
- Toss the tomatillo, kiwi, lime juice, basil, serrano, garlic and onion in a small bowl to combine; season with salt. Cover and chill 1 hour to allow the flavors to come together.
- Puree the carrots, lime juice, salt, garlic, habanero and 1 cup water in a blender on high speed until completely smooth and no large chunks remain. Transfer to a 1-quart jar or nonreactive container, cover loosely with plastic wrap and poke a few holes in the plastic to allow the hot sauce to breathe. Let sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours before serving and up to 3 days. The hot sauce can be made 1 week ahead; chill after 3 days.
- Pack the chiles, carrots and onion into a 1-quart heatproof jar or a nonreactive container. Put the peppercorns and allspice berries in a dry large saucepan over medium heat and toast, tossing constantly, until just fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the vinegar, sugar and salt and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar and salt. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon zest and juice, oregano, garlic and bay leaf. Let cool slightly, then pour the brine over the chiles, carrots and onion to submerge. Seal and chill at least 3 hours before serving. The flavor will mellow as it sits. The vegetables can be pickled 3 weeks ahead. Keep chilled.

Steps:
- First, make the pickled onions. Put the vinegar in a pan with 150ml water, the coriander seeds, peppercorns, sugar and 1 tsp salt over a medium heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Scoop the onions into a bowl and carefully pour over the hot pickling liquid. Leave to cool for 15 mins, then cover and chill for at least 1 hr. Will keep chilled for up to two days.
- For the tartare sauce, mix together all the ingredients, then cover and chill. Will keep chilled for up to two days.
- Sift the flour and cornflour into a bowl, then stir through the salt. Make a well in the centre and whisk in the cold beer to make a smooth batter. Cover and chill for 30 mins.
- Heat the oil in a deep, heavy-based pan, no more than two-thirds full, until the oil reaches 190C on a cooking thermometer. If you don't have a thermometer, check the oil is ready by dropping a small cube of bread into the oil - it should turn brown in about 10 seconds.
- Dip each piece of cod into the batter to fully coat, then gently shake off the excess. Fry the fish in batches for 4 mins per batch, then remove using a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
- Warm your tortillas in a low oven or in a dry frying pan. Spread over the tartare sauce, then add the fish and top with the pickled onions and shredded lettuce, plus a dash of hot sauce, if you like. Best enjoyed with a cold beer.

BEER BATTER FISH TACOS
Something about a good fish taco just screams summer. The beer batter is light and crunchy, perfect with the cod. Hot sauce brings a bit of heat but is a great complement to the tanginess of the lime and tartar sauce. Crispy cabbage on top of these refreshing fish tacos is excellent.
