FANCY FISH AND ZUCCHINI FRIES

Steps:

• Fill a large deep pot halfway with vegetable oil and heat over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Place a wire rack on a sheet pan and set aside.
• For the zucchini fries: Add the milk and lemon juice to a bowl and mix. Add the cornstarch and salt to a separate bowl and mix.
• Place the zucchini batons first in the milk and then in the cornstarch and toss to coat.
• Carefully add the zucchini batons to the hot oil in 2 batches and fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes per batch. Remove to the prepared wire rack and sprinkle with sea salt. Keep warm in the oven while you make the fish goujons.
• For the fish goujons: Place 1/2 cup of the flour in a shallow dish, add 1 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper, then mix.
• Combine the cornstarch, baking powder, remaining 1 teaspoon salt and remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, then whisk together. Slowly add the brown ale and mix until just combined.
• Dredge the fish, one piece at a time, in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the batter, coating well. Lower the fish into the hot oil in 2 batches and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch, flipping halfway. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with sea salt.
• To serve, place the goujons on one end of a platter or board. Remove the fries from the oven and arrange on the other end.
• Place a ramekin of tartare sauce on the platter, then garnish with lemon wedges and the parsley to serve.
