Title: Beer-Battered Fish & Chips
Categories: Five, Seafood, Breads
Yield: 4 servings

1 c (150 g) A-P flour
2 lg Eggs; lightly beaten
1 c (250 mL) beer or soda water
4 Desiree potatoes; peeled
- oil; to deep-fry
4 sm White fish fillets
A-P flour; to dust
Lemon wedges; to serve

Sift flour and a pinch of salt into a large bowl. Make a
well in centre and pour in egg and beer or soda water.
Gradually combine with a wooden spoon, until a smooth
batter forms. Rest for 30 minutes. Cut potatoes
lengthways into 7mm-wide strips. Place in a bowl of iced
water until ready to cook.

Line a baking tray with paper towel. Pour oil into a
deep, heavy-based saucepan or electric deep-fryer. Heat
oil to 180-|C/360-|F or test by dipping a chip into oil
(if bubbles appear instantly, oil is hot enough). Drain
and dry chips thoroughly. Using a wire basket,
perforated spoon or wire skimmer, lower chips into oil
and cook in batches for 8 minutes, until tender but not
golden. Remove from oil and drain on paper towel.

Reheat oil to 185-|C/365-|F. Lower chips back into oil
straight away. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until crisp and
golden. Drain on paper towel, sprinkle with salt and set
aside in a warm place.

Pat dry fish fillets with paper towel. Reheat oil. Stir
batter. Coat fish in flour then batter, letting excess
drip off. Lower fish into oil and cook for 3-5 minutes,
until batter is golden. Drain on paper towel, season
with salt and serve with hot chips and lemon wedges.
