Fish Fillets in Batter

I enjoy having the kids help me in the kitchen.  It is a lot messier, but they learn so much!  I do the frying here but the kids can measure and coat the fish.

Vegetable Oil
1 1/2 lbs. fillets of haddock
1 cup sifted all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Dash nutmeg
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk

Add about 2 inches of oil to a saucepan or a frying pan and heat to 375F.  Wash fish and cut into serving size pieces.  Sift flour, baking powder, salt, pepper and nutmeg into a bowl.  Add eggs and milk and beat until smooth.  Batter should be quite thick.  Dip fish into batter then drop into hot oil, two pieces at a time.  Fry until batter turns a deep golden brown.  Makes 4 to 6 servings.
