Method
Directions
Prepare the Chips
Peel and cut the potatoes into thick strips. Rinse under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
Fry the Chips
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. When hot, fry the potato strips in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.
Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add the beer, stirring until smooth.
Prepare the Fish
Pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel. Dip each fillet into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
Fry the Fish
In the same oil used for the chips, carefully lower the battered fish into the hot oil. Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Serve
Serve the beer-battered fish with the chips, salad, tartare sauce, and lemon wedges on the side.
