Cut the fish into bite-sized chunks

Add all the ingredients, except the fish, into a large bowl and whisk until a smooth batter with no lumps forms

Add the fish chunks into the batter and coat the fish pieces with the batter evenly

Heat a pan with oil for deep frying until medium-hot ensuring that the oil is not too hot – to test this you can add a small ball of the batter into the pan, and it should rise with tiny bubbles surrounding it

Gently add the fish into the pan – there should be tiny bubbles surrounding them – and allow them to cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes until golden brown before flipping and allowing to cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown on the other side
