Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beer Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the beer until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or a deep fryer, heat the oil to 350°F (175°C). Use enough oil to submerge the cod fillets.

  3. 3

    Batter the Cod

    Dip each cod fillet into the beer batter, ensuring it is completely coated.

  4. 4

    Fry the Cod

    Carefully place the battered cod fillets into the hot oil. Fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    Lightly toast the brioche buns on a skillet or grill until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf followed by a piece of fried cod. Top with tartar sauce and place the top half of the bun over it.

French Fries

  1. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into long strips to resemble fries.

  2. 8

    Fry the Potatoes

    In the same oil used for frying the fish, fry the potato strips in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch.

  3. 9

    Season the Fries

    Remove the fries from the oil, drain on paper towels, and season with salt to taste.
