# Combine egg and water in shallow dish or pie plate. Dip fish in egg mixture.
# Coat with cornmeal mixture.
# Heat Crisco oil to 365 °F in electric skillet or on medium-high heat in large heavy skillet. Fry fish for 5 to 7 minutes on each side or until crisp and browned. Drain on paper towels. Serve with tartar sauce, if desired.
