Gluten Free Deep Fried Fish Batter

I've made this several times and it always turns out delicious. It's a flaky batter to wrap around a white fish of your choice. We've tried it on Pollock and Cod. I'll post a photo next time I make it.

1 c gluten free all purpose flour (plus a little bit extra to coat fish)
1 c Cornstarch
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp salt
Small bottle of Club Soda
Vegetable oil

Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Slowly add Club Soda until the batter looks like pancake batter or coats the back of a spoon.

Place enough vegetable oil in a pot to cover a few piece of fish. Make sure the pot is no more than half full with oil. When the oil is hot, it's pretty volatile. Turn burner on to med-high. After 10 mins, place a small amount of batter in the oil and if the oil bubbles, it's ready.

Light coat fish with gluten free all purpose flour then dip the fish in to the batter. Make sure it's well coated. Gently place the battered fish into the oil until golden brown.

(This is much easier to make if you have a deep fryer!)
