Ingredients:  
2 cups cornstarch
1 cup flour
1 cup Fryin' Magic (packaged mix from Cub Foods)
1/8 cup paprika
1 tbsp Lowry's Seasoning
few dashes of pepper
can of beer

Directions:
Directions:
Mix together well, I sometimes sift together to get out lumps. Store in a Tupperware closed container until ready to use. Pour a can of beer into a bowl. Add dry mixture to beer a little at a time whisking well each time to get out lumps. You don't want it quite as thick as pancake batter; not too thick but not too thin. Experimenting over time will make you an expert! Dark beer is the best! You can "kick it up a notch" with some ground red pepper if you like a little "Cajun" flavor. Heat oil to 375º. I prefer to use 48-ounce of new canola oil each time for best flavor. Never use oil more than three or four times. Pat fish dry and cut into small pieces (cooks faster). Stir fish into batter and submerge. Use a tongs to take each fish piece from batter and place into hot oil. If using a fry pan, be sure to turn fish over once. Fish should be golden brown to a tan brown. Usually about three to four minutes in pan for small pieces. Remove fish and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt while on towel and fresh out of pan. Cover drained fish with a paper towel or place into warm oven to keep warm until served.
