Fish & Chips Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
- 1
Prepare the Fries
Peel the potatoes and cut them into thick strips. Soak in water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry.

Make the Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add the ale, mixing until smooth.

Fry the Potatoes
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the potato strips in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.

Fry the Fish
Dredge the cod fillets in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the batter, then carefully place in the hot oil. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serve
Plate the fish and chips together. Serve with tartar sauce and lemon wedges on the side.
