I was looking for a beer batter recipe to make corn fritters. My family LOVES corn fritters, and this recipe more than satisfied everybody. Don't worry if you don't like beer - it just gives a yeasty "depth" to the flavour; there is no "beer" taste in the finished batter. Crispy on the outside, satisfyingly rich and chewy inside... and you couldn't ask for easier directions. Thanks, Janice!<br/>p.s. I doubled the recipe and then used about 2 cups of corn (I think).<br/>p.p.s. Use a bland, cheap beer (but not Lite). Don't waste a good beer or a strong one - the taste may be bitter or overpowering.

This was very delicious and easy. I did find that the batter did not sick well to scallops when cooked. To solve this issue, I had seen a slight variation in another recipe where the author dredged the fish lightly in cornstarch prior to dipping in the batter. This made a 100% difference in the batter sticking to the scallops during cooking. Great recipe Janice. Thanks for sharing

My brother just loves fish and chips. He is disabled so it is hard to get him out a lot. So I decided to try my hand at making homemade fish and chips! For the first time making this batter, I followed it exactly as written. We both thought the fish turned out every bit as good as any restaurant prepared fish! This is definitely a keeper!
