Cut the white fish fillets into finger-thick strips and pat them dry.
Whisk the flour, egg, sparkling water, half the salt, and black pepper into a pourable batter.
Mix the strained yogurt, mayonnaise, and juice of 1 lime to make a creamy sauce.
Thinly shred the cabbage, pick the cilantro, and warm the tortillas.
Heat the vegetable oil to 180°C, dip the fish in the batter, and fry for 3 to 4 minutes.
Rest the fried fish on a wire rack for 2 minutes so excess oil drains.
Serve the tortillas filled with fish, cabbage, sauce, cilantro, and lime juice.
💡 Tip: Dry the fish surface well with paper towels before dipping it in batter; a wet surface thins the coating and makes it separate in the oil.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve fish tacos hot with lime, thin cabbage, and optional spicy salsa verde.
