I just take the fish and in this case cut it up and added 2-3 tbsp. Crystal hot sauce and yellow mustard. Sometimes I mix the mustard with beer. I let that sit(really to be ready to bread)in the fridge so it's all good and cold. Shake off mustard, and drop into the dry batter mix and coat well. I did double coat some because while frying the fries they got moist. and they're ready to fry. These I fried at 350* until golden brown, drain and place on paper towels or a screen so oil doesn't get them soggy. That's it!
