Method

Preparation of Fries

1

Cut the Potatoes

Peel and cut the russet potatoes into thin shoestring fries.

2

Soak the Fries

Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

3

Fry the Fries

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Drain the fries and dry them with a towel. Fry in batches until golden and crispy, about 4-6 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste.

Preparation of Fish

4

Make the Batter

In a bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add the beer while whisking until smooth.

5

Heat the Oil

In a deep fryer or large pot, heat oil to 375°F (190°C).

6

Batter the Cod

Dip each piece of cod into the batter, allowing excess to drip off.

7

Fry the Cod

Carefully place the battered cod in the hot oil. Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Preparation of Tartar Sauce

8

Combine Ingredients

In a bowl, mix together mayonnaise, chopped dill pickles, lemon juice, chopped capers, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
