Steps:
- 1. Note: The 'chips' are cooked separately in the oven. I'll start you off with the directions for those (even though I didn't list it in that order for ingredients....sorry!) and while they bake, you can make the fish.
- 2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- 3. Scrub the potoates, cut them in half lengthwise, then cut each half in thirds lengthwise (if your potaotes are very large, you may want to cut them again). You'll have at least 6 long wedges from each potato.
- 4. Put the potatoes on a sheet pan with the olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic and rosemary. Toss them all together. Spread the potatoes in a single layer with one cut side down.
- 5. Bake the potoates for 30-35 minutes, turning to the other cut side after about 20 minutes. Bake until they are lightly browned, crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Sprinkle with salt and serve with the finished fish.
- 6. Meanwhile, while the potatoes are cooking, lay the cod fillets on a cutting board and sprinle both sides with salt and pepper. Cut the fillets in 1 1/2 inch x 3-inch pieces
- 7. In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, lemon zest, cayenne pepper, 1 1/2 t salt and 3/4 t pepper. Whisk in 1 cup of water and then the 2 eggs.
- 8. Pour 1/2 inch of oil into a large (12 inch) frying pan and heat it to about 360 degrees F.
- 9. Dip each fillet into the batter, allowing the excess to drip back into the bowl. Place it very carefully into the hot oil. Don't crowd the pieces. Adjust the heat as needed to keep the oil between 360 and 400 degrees F. Cook the fish on each side for 2-3 minutes, until lightly browned and cooked through.
- 10. Remove the fish to a plate lined with paper towel. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the 'chips'. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for chips because they are low in starch and have a high solids content, which makes them crispy.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
- Soak the potatoes in water for at least 30 minutes before frying: This will help to remove excess starch and make the chips crispier.
- Use a large pot or Dutch oven for frying: This will help to prevent the chips from sticking together.
- Heat the oil to the correct temperature: The ideal temperature for frying chips is 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Fry the chips in small batches: This will help to prevent them from overcrowding the pot and sticking together.
- Drain the chips on paper towels: This will help to remove excess oil.
- Season the chips with salt and vinegar: This is the classic British way to enjoy fish and chips.
Conclusion:
Fish and chips is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a casual dinner or a party. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect fish and chips at home. So next time you're craving this classic British dish, give this recipe a try!
