Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thick fries. Soak the fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Batter

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

Cooking Chips

  1. 3

    Fry the Chips

    Heat 2 cups of vegetable oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat. Once hot, drain the soaked fries and pat them dry. Fry the chips in batches for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.

Cooking Fish

  1. 4

    Fry the Fish

    In the same pot, heat 4 cups of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot. Dip each fish fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, and carefully place it in the hot oil. Fry for about 5-6 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve with Condiments

    Serve the fish and chips hot with malt vinegar and tartar sauce on the side for dipping.
