1
Preheat oven to 350u00b0. Pour oil into a wide, heavy, medium pot to a depth of 2 in. and heat over medium-high heat until temperature reaches 375u00b0 on a deep-fry thermometer. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix cornstarch, flour, baking powder, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 3/4 cup club soda until as smooth as pancake batter, adding more club soda if needed.
