Fish and Chips Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thick fries. Rinse under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Fry the Potatoes

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potato fries in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt.

  3. 3

    Make the Batter

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

  4. 4

    Prepare and Fry the Fish

    Dip each fish fillet into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Carefully place the battered fish in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the crispy fish with the fries. Drizzle with malt vinegar and serve with tartar sauce on the side.
