Method

Preparing the Fish

  1. 1

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the cold sparkling water until the batter reaches a smooth and thick consistency. Let the batter rest for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the temperature by dropping a small amount of batter into the oil; it should bubble and rise to the surface.

  3. 3

    Fry the Fish

    Dredge each fish fillet in a little flour, then dip it into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish and drain on paper towels.

Preparing the Chips

  1. 4

    Cut the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thick wedges or chips, about 1/2 inch thick.

  2. 5

    Soak the Potatoes

    Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps achieve a crispier texture.

  3. 6

    Fry the Chips

    After soaking, drain and pat the potatoes dry with a paper towel. In the same heated oil used for the fish, carefully add the chips and fry for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season immediately with salt.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate and Serve

    Serve the fish hot alongside the chips. Drizzle with malt vinegar and serve tartar sauce on the side for dipping.
