Ingredients:
Basic           Self Raising Flour ~ Water 
Seafood      To Basic ~ add Pinch Salt ~ Fresh ground black pepper ~ Lemon Pepper
Method:
Take bowl with self raising flour and add a little water. Stir adding a little water at a time till you make a thick runny batter
The consistency required is for it to become a thick runny batter that just falls off the spoon.
Dredge fish fillets etc in cornflour or a light dusting of flour before dipping in batter and frying

The secret to a light crispy batter is DOUBLE COOKING...Place your food in batter. hot oil and cook till the batter sets and just changes colour.
Remove food and place on paper towels to go COLD and drain..Clean up the oil for the second cooking.
Turn up the heat and deep fry till golden brown

Hints:
Do NOT use a basket as the batter tends to stick and make a mess..
Use this same method of DOUBLE cooking home made chips to make them nice and crispy
