Ingredients
For the chips
- 4 potatoes peeled and sliced into chips
- vegetable/canola oil for deep frying
- salt to taste
For the beer battered fish
- ½ cup flour
- ½ cup cornflour / cornstarch
- 1-1½ cup beer (alternatively use soda water/club soda)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 kg White fish fillets de-boned, skin-on
Instructions
- For the chips: Boil the potatoes in salted water for 10 minutes or until they just start to soften. Drain and allow to dry on a wire rack for 10-30 minutes.
- Heat a large pot of vegetable/canola oil until hot. Carefully add the potatoes in batches and fry until golden brown and crisp. Drain with a slotted spoon and place back onto the wire rack. Keep the chips in a warm oven while you fry the fish.
- For the fish: Combine the flours and salt in a large mixing bowl. Transfer half to a shallow dish / ziploc bag suitable for coating the fish. Whisk the beer or soda water into the flour in the mixing bowl until smooth. Coat the fish first in the flour mixture then in the batter.
- Carefully lower the fish into the hot oil, one to two pieces at a time and allow to fry for 7-10 minutes or until the fish is golden and crisp.
- Remove from the oil, drain on kitchen paper then serve with the chips and tartar sauce.
