Fish

Method

Preparation of Chips

  1. 1

    Cut the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thick strips (about 1/2 inch wide).

  2. 2

    Soak the Potatoes

    Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  3. 3

    Dry the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Preparation of Fish

  1. 4

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and cold sparkling water. Mix until smooth.

  2. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat to about 350°F (175°C).

Frying

  1. 6

    Fry the Fish

    Dip the cod fillets into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place them in the hot oil and fry for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  2. 7

    Fry the Chips

    In the same oil, fry the dried potato strips in batches for about 5-7 minutes or until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, and season with salt.

Tartar Sauce

  1. 8

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, dill pickles, lemon juice, capers, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.
