Fish & Chips Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
- 1
Prepare the Fries
Peel and cut the potatoes into thick strips. Rinse under cold water to remove excess starch and pat dry.
- 2
Fry the Potatoes
Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or 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. Season with salt.
- 3
Prepare the Batter
In a bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in cold water until the batter is smooth and thick.
- 4
Fry the Fish
Heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) again. Dip each rockfish fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, and carefully place in the hot oil. Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- 5
Serve
Plate the fish alongside the fries and serve with tartar sauce on the side.
