Ingredients:





     3 lb Fish Fillets; Firm, White


     2 tb Lemon juice


     1 c  Milk; or more as needed


     2 c  Flour


     3 c  Pancake mix


     2 c  Club Soda (approx.)


     1 ts Basil


     1 ts Pepper


   1/2 ts Garlic salt


          Cooking oil






 Cut fish fillets in half, making triangular shape. Cover with milk and


 lemon juice and refrigerate 3-4 hours. Drain off milk.  Dip fillets in


 flour to coat each piece lightly. Let dry on a cookie sheet,  making sure


 pieces do not tough. Add oil to deep fryer or heavy pan to a  depth of at


 least 3 inches. Heat oil to 425~. Combine pancake mix, basil, pepper,


 garlic salt and enough soda to make a thick batter, about the consistency


 of buttermilk. Dip floured fillets in batter and add to the hot oil one at


 a time. Fry 4-5 minutes. Remove filets to cookie sheet, again, not letting


 them touch and keep warm in a 250~ oven. Deep fry remaining filets, keeping


 the depth of the oil at least 3 inches. NOTE: Do not heap fish as this


 creates steam in the oven and makes coating soft.
