For the Taco Tartar Sauce
For the Fish Sliders
In a medium size mixing bowl, add the flour, beer, and both taco seasoning packets. Mix well, let batter stand for 5 minutes.
Heat the oil in a medium size sauce pan on medium high heat to 180° C (350° F).
Dip fish pieces in the batter to coat evenly. Carefully place pieces in hot oil, work in batches so you do not over crowd the pan. Cook 2-3 minutes or until golden brown, turning once.
Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
Serve fish on rolls with cheese and tartar sauce, enjoy.
Low cost per serving.
