  •   1 tbsp garlic powder
  •   1/2 tbsp black pepper
  •   2 tsp salt
 
Wet Batter
  •   1 cup all purpose flour
  •   1/3 cup cornstarch
  •   1/4 cup rice flour
  •   1 tbsp onion powder
  •   1 tbsp garlic powder
  •   1 tbsp paprika
  •   1/2 tbsp black pepper
  •   2 tsp salt
  •   1 tbsp baking powder

  •   1 cup mayo
  •   1 cup dill pickles (chopped)
  •   1 tbsp fresh dill
  •   2 tsp lemon juice
  •   1 tsp sugar
  •   1/2 tsp black pepper

Directions

  1. In a bowl, season your fish fillets with onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Set aside.
  2. To make the tartar sauce, mix together mayonnaise, chopped dill pickle, dill, black pepper, lemon juice, and a finely chopped Thai chili pepper. Taste and add salt as needed.
  3. For the wet batter, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, rice flour, baking powder, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt in a mixing bowl.
  4. Gradually whisk in cold sparkling water until the mixture reaches a pancake batter consistency.
  5. Dredge each piece of seasoned fish in plain flour, then dip into the wet batter to fully coat.
  6. Fry the battered fish in oil heated to 350°F (175°C) until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
  7. To assemble the sandwich, place a slice of cheese on the bottom bun, add the crispy fried fish, spoon over the tartar sauce, and finish with the top bun.
