Ingredients
For the Fish
For the Chips
For the Mushy Peas
Preparing the Chips
1. Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the potatoes and cut them into thick chips (about 1/2 inch thick). Rinse under cold water to remove excess starch.
2. Soak the Chips
Soak the cut chips in cold water for at least 30 minutes to help them achieve a crispy texture.
3. First Fry
Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large heavy pot to 325°F (160°C). Drain the chips and dry them thoroughly. Fry the chips in batches for about 5 minutes until soft but not colored. Remove and drain on paper towels.
4. Second Fry
Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C). Fry the chips again in batches for another 3-4 minutes until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
Preparing the Fish
5. Make the Batter
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Gradually whisk in the cold sparkling water until you have a smooth batter.
6. Heat the Oil
In a deep fryer or large pot, heat vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).
7. Batter the Fish
Dip each fish fillet into the batter, coating it evenly. Allow excess batter to drip off.
8. Fry the Fish
Carefully lower the battered fish fillets into the hot oil. Fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until the batter is golden and the fish is cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Preparing the Mushy Peas
9. Cook the Peas
In a small pot, bring water to a boil and add the frozen peas. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until tender. Drain.
10. Mash the Peas
Return the peas to the pot, add the butter, salt, pepper, and optional mint. Mash the peas with a fork or potato masher until you achieve a mushy consistency.
