1) Mix flour and corn flour, salt and pepper.Prepare the seasoning mix: finely grind all the spices (in a coffee mill, for example). Since you do not need the whole quantity, store the mix in an airtight glass bottle and refrigerate for future use.

2) Add the seasoning to flour mixture, stir.Slowly add beer, whisking constantly until a batter consistency.Coat filets with batter and fry in hot oil about 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Set aside to a warm place.From the remaining batter form small pancakes and fry in the same oil. They make great accompaniment to the fillets.

3) Serve immediately with potato salad.
