Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 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.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Fish

    Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. Dip each tilapia fillet first in flour, then in the egg, and finally in breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Fry the Potatoes

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the soaked potato strips in batches until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.

  4. 4

    Fry the Fish

    In the same oil, fry the breaded tilapia fillets for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the fish and chips together and serve with tartar sauce on the side.
