Potato Fried Bass

oil

1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup instant potato flakes/buds
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2 eggs, beaten with 3 tbls. cold water
1 1/2 pound fillet, bass or your favorite

Mix the first five ingredients in a shallow bowl. Beat the eggs and water and put in a separate shallow bowl. Heat about 1/4 inch of cooking oil in a large frying pan. Dip the fillets in the egg mixture then roll in flour mix to coat lightly and fry in hot oil. Cooking time will vary with the thickness of the fillets. Turn when the frying side becomes golden brown. Test to see when fish flakes easily with a fork for doneness. This is a very crispy, light batter. Tasty served with tarter sauce or a picante sauce.
