    Pflum's pfish tacos

    Pfew young ladies know their way around a pfish taco like our good pfriend Pfraulein Pflum. Today we pfilch her amazing recipe for incredibly pfluffy beer battered-cod tacos:

    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

    6 corn tortillas
    2 cups shredded cabbage

    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.
