1. Rinsed and drain dry 2 cups of Korean Silver fishes after thawing. Use kitchen towel to dry extra water from fishes. 
2. Marinate fishes with 1 tbsp of salt, 1 tsp of white pepper and 1 tsp of cooking wine. Set aside for 30mins. 
3. Prepare the batter. This is an estimation so adjust accordingly when mixing. Add 1.5 cups of Self-raising flour; 4 tbsps of sweet potatoes flour / crispy frying powder (Hup Loong Frying powder bought from wet market) and 1 tsp of baking powder. Slowly mix in ice water and create a smooth batter. Add 1/2 tbsp of cooking oil, 1 tsp of salt, 1 tsp of chicken powder and a dash of white pepper. Batter should be slightly thick with no lumps but not watery.
