Fish Fry Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Preparing the Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the beer or sparkling water until the batter is smooth and well-blended.

  2. 2

    Heating the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Battering the Fish

    Dip each haddock fillet into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

  4. 4

    Frying the Fish

    Carefully place the battered fish fillets into the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Cooking the French Fries

    While frying the fish, cook the frozen French fries according to package instructions, either in the oven or in a deep fryer.

  6. 6

    Preparing the Coleslaw

    In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw mix with the coleslaw dressing. Toss well to coat and set aside.

  7. 7

    Serving

    Plate the fried haddock alongside the French fries and a generous serving of coleslaw. Enjoy your fish fry!
