Beer Battered Fish Taco's

[Bad Fish]

I recently made fish tacos with striped bass and they were fantastic! For those of you who haven't tried fish taco's they are a hell of alot better than they sound. I was skeptical at first but now i am a believer.

Here is the recipe:

* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 2 tablespoons cornstarch
* 1 teaspoon baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1 egg
* 1 cup beer
*
* 1/2 cup plain yogurt
* 1/2 cup mayonnaise
* 1 lime, juiced
* 1 jalapeno pepper, minced
* 1 teaspoon minced capers
* 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
* 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
* 1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed
* 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
*
* 1 quart oil for frying
* 1 pound Striped Bass, cut into 2 to 3 ounce portions
* 1 (12 ounce) package corn tortillas
* 1/2 medium head cabbage, finely shredded

DIRECTIONS

1. To make beer batter: In a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Blend egg and beer, then quickly stir into the flour mixture (don't worry about a few lumps).
2. To make white sauce: In a medium bowl, mix together yogurt and mayonnaise. Gradually stir in fresh lime juice until consistency is slightly runny. Season with jalapeno, capers, oregano, cumin, dill, and cayenne.
3. Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
4. Dust fish pieces lightly with flour. Dip into beer batter, and fry until crisp and golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Lightly fry tortillas; not too crisp. To serve, place fried fish in a tortilla, and top with shredded cabbage, and white sauce.
