Fish and Fries
Method
Preparation and Cooking
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the potatoes and cut them into thick fries. Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
- 2
Prepare the Batter
In a bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the sparkling water until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a deep pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 4
Fry the Potatoes
Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry. Carefully add them to the hot oil in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- 5
Fry the Cod Fish
Dip each cod fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered fish in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-6 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- 6
Serve
Serve the fried cod fish with crispy fries, tartar sauce, and lemon wedges on the side.
