Beer Batter

French Fries

Method

Beer Batter Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beer Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the Sam Adams® beer, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk until smooth and let it rest for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Fish

    While the batter rests, pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season them lightly with salt and pepper.

French Fries Preparation

  1. 3

    Cut and Fry the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips. Rinse under cold water to remove excess starch and pat dry. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potato strips in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, then sprinkle with sea salt.

Hush Puppies Preparation

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a bowl, mix together cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. In another bowl, whisk together milk, egg, and chopped onion.

  2. 5

    Form Hush Puppies

    Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Heat the vegetable oil for frying in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Drop small spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Coleslaw Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Coleslaw

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and shredded carrot. In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and salt. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss to combine. Let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Final Assembly

  1. 7

    Fry the Fish

    Heat oil in a deep fryer or pot to 350°F (175°C). Dip the seasoned fish fillets in the beer batter, allowing excess to drip off, then carefully place them in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  2. 8

    Serve

    On a plate, serve the crispy beer-battered fish alongside a generous portion of sea salt French fries, hush puppies, and coleslaw. Enjoy your homemade Sam Adams® Fish + Chips!
