Best 5 Fish And Chips With Malt Vinegar Mayonnaise Recipes

TRADITIONAL FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a countertop deep-fryer to 250 degrees F.
• Rinse the potatoes in cold water and pat each chip with paper towels until absolutely dry. Poach the chips in the oil until cooked but not browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Scoop up the chips, shake off the excess oil and set aside. Turn up the heat on the fryer to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, vinegar and 3 heaping tablespoons salt until pasty. Add 2 cups water and whisk until there are no lumps. Refrigerate the batter for 15 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Fill a second bowl with flour and season with salt. Sprinkle the fish fillets on both sides with salt and pepper, then dredge in the flour, making sure each fillet is completely covered.
• Working in batches, shake off the excess flour from the fillets and dip them into the cooled batter. Let excess batter drip back into the bowl before gently lowering the fillets into the fryer. Fry until the batter is golden brown and the fish is just cooked through but still tender and juicy, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on a wire rack set over a baking sheet and transfer to the oven to keep warm.
• When all the fillets are cooked, crisp the chips in the fryer until golden brown. Carefully shake off the excess oil and season immediately with salt.
• Serve the fish and chips with malt vinegar and tartar sauce on the side.

FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• Fill a large bowl with water and add 1 tablespoon salt and 1 tablespoon vinegar per gallon. Cut the potatoes into fries, placing into the salted water immediately after cutting.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then add 1 teaspoon salt per gallon and cook the fries until they are tender but not mushy, 12 to 13 minutes. Turn out onto a tray and chill, uncovered, for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Add the peanut oil to a large heavy-bottomed pot or a deep fryer and preheat to 360 degrees F.
• Cut the fish into 8 finger-like pieces of equal size. Sprinkle each piece with salt. Set aside while you get the batter ready.
• Add 1 1/2 cups all-purpose and 1 1/2 cups instant flour to a bowl and mix well. Stir in the sugar, baking powder and vodka. Slowly add the beer, mixing until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
• Add the remaining cup all-purpose and cup instant flour to a shallow dish and mix to combine.
• Place the fish fillets in the flours and dredge until evenly coated. Add the floured fish to the batter and let the excess drain off. Fry until golden brown and delicious, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the oil, then drain on paper towels and season with salt.
• Fry the potatoes until golden brown and floating, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oil and add to a heatproof bowl. Season with the salt and malt vinegar and gently toss to combine.
• Place the fries on a plate or basket, then top with the fish and serve with the malt vinegar and tartar sauce.

FISH AND CHIPS WITH MALT VINEGAR MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• For malt vinegar mayonnaise:
• Whisk egg yolk and 1 tablespoon vinegar in a small bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in oil, drop by drop at first, until mayonnaise is thickened and smooth. Add remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Cover and chill.
• DO AHEAD: Mayonnaise can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.
• For fish and assembly:
• Fit a large pot with thermometer; pour in oil to measure 3". Heat over medium-high heat until thermometer registers 375°F.
• Meanwhile, whisk all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly add beer, club soda, and vinegar, adding more beer if batter is too thick (it should be the consistency of thin pancake batter).
• Place corn flour in a shallow bowl. Season fish with kosher salt and pepper. Dredge fish in corn flour, shaking off excess, then dip in batter, letting excess drip back into bowl. Working in batches and returning oil to 375°F between batches, fry fish until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towel-lined baking sheet.
• Season fish and fries with Old Bay, sea salt, and dill; serve with malt vinegar mayonnaise and lemon wedges.

CLASSIC FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a medium-size bowl of cold water. In a separate medium-size mixing bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Stir in the milk and egg; stir until the mixture is smooth. Let mixture stand for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oil in a large pot or electric skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fry the potatoes in the hot oil until they are tender. Drain them on paper towels.
• Dredge the fish in the batter, one piece at a time, and place them in the hot oil. Fry until the fish is golden brown. If necessary, increase the heat to maintain the 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) temperature. Drain well on paper towels.
• Fry the potatoes again for 1 to 2 minutes for added crispness.

FISH AND CHIPS WITH TARRAGON-MALT VINEGAR MAYONNAISE

• Whisk mayonnaise, tarragon, and vinegar in small bowl to blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Whisk flour and Old Bay seasoning in medium bowl to blend. Add beer and whisk just until blended. Pour enough oil into heavy large skillet to reach depth of 1 inch; heat oil to 350°F. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Working in batches, dip fish into beer batter to coat lightly, allowing excess batter to drip back into bowl. Add fish to hot oil and fry until deep golden and just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer fish to paper towels to drain. Working in batches, add potato slices to oil and cook until golden and tender, turning occasionally, about 4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Sprinkle generously with salt.
