Dry the filets with paper towels. Put the flour, seasoned salt and white pepper in a plastic bag and mix well. Add the perch filets to the plastic bag and shake to coat the filets with seasoned flour. In a large frying pan, heat the canola oil, 1/4 inch deep, to about 375 degrees. Take the floured filets and dip one by one, into the batter to coat, and carefully place the filet into the hot oil. Fry filets till golden brown on both sides. Serves two.
