I love fish and chips, even the fast food greasy ones.
You don't have to settle for just good fish and chips when
with this recipe you can make a great version at home.
Battered Fish:
2 cups or 8 ounces all-purpose flour
plus 1 cup extra for dusting fish
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
5 fluid ounces seltzer
5 fluid ounces beer
canola oil for frying
4 filets of cod or pollock 6 ounces each
Preheat oil to 375 degrees F.
Combine 2 cups flour, pinch of salt,
and 1 teaspoon of baking powder in a medium bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine seltzer and beer
and start with one cup liquid, whisk into dry ingredients.
Batter should be the consistency of heavy cream,
add more beer seltzer mixture until
you get the right consistency,
keep batter chilled until use.
Put 1 cup flour in a shallow bowl or plate
and coat your fish completely in flour,
then dip fish in batter allowing the excess
to drip back into the bowl.
Fry fish in the fryer until nicly browned.
To fry the chips, cut potatoes in wedges,
fry until just golden brown.
Serve fish and chips with malt vinegar.
