In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add cold sparkling water, stirring until a smooth batter forms.

03 -
Dip each salmon cube into the batter, ensuring complete coverage.
04 -
Carefully lower battered salmon cubes into the hot oil in small batches to prevent overcrowding. Fry for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Maintain oil temperature around 175°C to ensure even frying and a non-greasy finish.
