- 1 tsp baking powder
- 150 ml water Ice-cold
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions
- Begin by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into thick chips. After that, rinse the chips under cold water, and then use kitchen paper to pat them dry.

- Gradually pour the ice-cold water into the flour mixture, whisking continuously until you have a batter that is smooth.
- Take each fish fillet and dip it into the batter, ensuring that it is completely coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
- Carefully place the fish fillets into the hot oil and fry them for 4-5 minutes or until they are golden and crispy. If necessary, fry the fish in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove the fish from the oil and place it on a plate lined with kitchen paper to absorb any excess oil.
- Increase the temperature of the oil to 190°C/375°F.
- Add the prepared chips to the hot oil and fry them for 5-6 minutes or until they are golden and crispy. If necessary, fry the chips in batches.
