Fish Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tartar Sauce

    In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, finely chopped pickles, lemon juice, and sugar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Cabbage Slaw

    In a separate bowl, combine shredded cabbage and carrot. Add a pinch of salt and mix well. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large bowl, mix together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in beer or sparkling water until smooth.

  4. 4

    Fry the Haddock

    In a deep skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Dip haddock fillets in the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Fry in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the buns if desired. Place a fried haddock fillet on the bottom half of each bun, top with cabbage slaw, and a generous dollop of tartar sauce. Close the sandwich with the top half of the bun.
