Air Fryer Beer Battered Fish And Chips Recipes

AIR FRYER FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• Peel russet potato and cut into 12 wedges. Pour 3 cups water into a medium bowl and submerge potato wedges for 15 minutes. Drain off water and replace with fresh water. Soak wedges for 15 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix together flour, cornstarch, salt, garlic powder, baking soda, and baking powder in a bowl. Pour in 1/2 cup malt beer and stir to combine. If batter seems too thick, add remaining beer 1 tablespoon at a time.
• Place cod fillets on a rimmed baking sheet lined with a drip rack. Spoon 1/2 of the batter over the fillets. Place rack in freezer to allow batter to solidify, about 35 minutes. Flip fillets over and coat the remaining side with the batter. Return to freezer for an additional 35 minutes.
• Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 8 minutes.
• Cook frozen fish fillets for 15 minutes, flipping at the halfway point.
• Meanwhile, drain off water from potato wedges and blot dry with a paper towel. Toss with oil, salt, and pepper. Air fry for 15 minutes.

AIR FRYER BEER BATTERED FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees.
• Peel and then cut the potatoes lengthwise into thick slices that are about 1/2 inch thick. Pat them dry.
• Place the potato slices into a large bowl and drizzle with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine.
• Cook the potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer for 7-10 minutes, toss the fries and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes (or until the fries have reached your desired crispness). [Note: You will likely need to do multiple batches in order to cook all the fries. Do not overcrowd your air fryer or they will not get crispy.]
• Cut the white fish into filets that are about 4 inches each.
• In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of the all-purpose flour with the cornstarch, baking soda, egg, and beer. You should have a thick batter.
• In another bowl, combine the remaining flour with the salt, pepper, old bay, garlic powder, and onion powder.
• Dip each filet of white fish first into the flour mixture so that they are all coated.
• Then use tongs to dip each filet into the beer batter, gently shaking off any excess batter, and then into the flour mix again, making sure to evenly coat each side.
• Finally, recoat the filet in the batter and place it on a piece of greased aluminum foil cut to fit your air fryer basket.
• Cook the fish in a single layer in the air fryer for 5-7 minutes before flipping and cooking an additional 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook the fish in two batches so that it can cook and brown evenly. Do not overcrowd your fryer.
• Serve immediately.
