"Toneys Deep Fried Striper"
2 cups of Striped Bass (or other fish!)
Cut fish into cubes a little smaller than a marshmallow.
In a saucepan add conola oil about 1 1/2 inches deep.
In a bowl combine:
1 cup yellow self rising cornmeal
2 heaping tablespoon of lemon pepper
1 heaping tbsp salt.
Stir with fork till well mixed
Dip wet fish pieces one at a time in mixture and place them on a plate.
Heat oil.
While oil is heating take a piece of fish and "test" the oil by dipping a tip of the fish in the oil.
When it's hot enough the fish will start to fry.
Do not over cook! Do not add to many at one time! Do not try to get them "golden brown"!
When they float wait 30 seconds and remove them to a plate with a paper towel on it. Salt to taste if needed.
