Fish and Chips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the coleslaw

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, carrot, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Mix well and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the fries

    Peel and cut the potatoes into fries. Rinse under cold water, then soak in water for about 30 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

  3. 3

    Make the batter

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add cold sparkling water until the batter is smooth and thick.

  4. 4

    Fry the fish

    Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 350°F (175°C). Dip each haddock fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Fry the fries

    In the same oil, add the prepared fries in batches and fry until golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Plate the fried haddock alongside the crispy fries and serve with homemade coleslaw on the side.
