Method
- Shake the bottle of pancake shaker mix to loosen. Pour the contents into a bowl, add the sparkling water and mix well with a wooden spoon; don't worry if it's a bit lumpy. Season well; set aside.
- Put enough oil in a large saucepan so it reaches 2-3cm up the sides. Heat over a medium heat until a small cube of bread dropped in sizzles, and browns after about 1 min (if it browns before this, the oil is too hot).
- Working in 3-4 batches, dip the basa strips in the batter, then use tongs to lower into the hot oil. Fry for 3-4 mins until the batter is crisp and golden and the fish is cooked through. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on kitchen paper.
- Divide the tartare sauce between the bases and lids of each ciabatta. Top with lettuce and 3 fish fingers. Add the gherkin slices and dill, then top each sandwich with a lid.
