Fried Haddock

Sandwich Assembly

Chowder (Optional)

Method

Fried Haddock

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the cold water until the batter is smooth and well combined.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

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

  3. 3

    Fry the Haddock

    Dip each haddock fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered fillets into the hot oil and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each sandwich bun, place a fried haddock fillet. Top with a slice of American cheese, a leaf of romaine lettuce, and a couple of slices of tomato. Cover with the top half of the bun.

Chowder (Optional)

  1. 5

    Prepare the Chowder

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and diced potato, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the clams, chicken broth, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes.

  2. 6

    Finish the Chowder

    Stir in the heavy cream and simmer for an additional 5 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasoning to taste.
