200 g Cornmeal(1 ½ cups)

100 g All-purpose flour(¾ cup)

10 g Paprika(2 teaspoons)

8 g Garlic powder(1 ½ teaspoons)

8 g Onion powder (1 ½ teaspoons)

5 g Cayenne pepper (optional, for a spicy kick!)(1 teaspoon)

10 g Salt(2 teaspoons)

5 g Black pepper(1 teaspoon)

2 g Dried thyme(½ teaspoon)

5 g Baking powder(1 teaspoon)

Prepare the Seasoning Mix

In a large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, black pepper, thyme, and baking powder. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Coat Your Fish

Pat your fish fillets dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Dip each fillet into the seasoning mix, ensuring an even coating on all sides.

Fry to Perfection

Heat oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Gently place the coated fillets into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3–5 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.

Serve and Enjoy

Remove the fried fish from the oil and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or your favorite dipping sauce.
