Fish & Chips Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
- 1
Prepare the Fries
Peel and cut the potatoes into thick strips. Soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry.
- 2
Make the Batter
In a bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the cold sparkling water until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
- 3
Fry the Potatoes
Heat the oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potato strips in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- 4
Fry the Cod
Dip each cod fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serve
Serve the fish and chips hot, with lemon wedges, tartar sauce, and coleslaw on the side if desired.
