Fish and Chips Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish Batter

    In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and beer until smooth. Let it rest for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thick strips. Rinse under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Coleslaw

    Shred the cabbage and grate the carrot. In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and salt. Add the shredded vegetables and toss until well coated.

  4. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Add the potato strips in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Fry the Fish

    Dip each fish fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Plate the fish and chips together with a side of coleslaw. Enjoy your homemade fish and chips!
