Method

Preparing the Fish

  1. 1

    Make the Batter

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

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Coat the Fish

    Dip each fish fillet into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off before gently placing it in the hot oil.

  4. 4

    Fry the Fish

    Fry the fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Preparing the Chips

  1. 5

    Cut the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thick fries or wedges.

  2. 6

    Rinse and Dry

    Rinse the cut potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with a towel.

  3. 7

    Fry the Chips

    In a separate pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the potatoes in batches and fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, then season with salt to taste.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the hot fish and chips on plates with a side of tartar sauce and lemon wedges for squeezing over the fish.
