Ingredients

• 4 pieces Fresh haddock fillets
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Arrowroot powder
• 1 cup Soda water
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 4 wedges Fresh lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Begin by patting the haddock fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour and arrowroot powder.

Step 3

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the soda water and egg until well blended.

Step 4

Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the flour mixture and stir to combine.

Step 5

Gradually pour the whisked egg and soda water into the flour mixture, stirring continuously until a smooth batter forms.

Step 6

Heat coconut oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. You may need to add more oil to ensure a depth of about 1/4 inch.

Step 7

Dip each haddock fillet into the batter, ensuring it is coated evenly on all sides.

Step 8

Carefully place the battered fillets into the hot oil. Fry each fillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Use a slotted spatula to transfer the cooked fillets to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 10

Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.
