CRISPY FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• For the chips: Boil the potatoes in salted water for 10 minutes or until they just start to soften. Drain and allow to dry on a wire rack for 10-30 minutes.
• Heat a large pot of vegetable/canola oil until hot. Carefully add the potatoes in batches and fry until golden brown and crisp. Drain with a slotted spoon and place back onto the wire rack. Keep the chips in a warm oven while you fry the fish.
• For the fish: Combine the flours and salt in a large mixing bowl. Transfer half to a shallow dish / ziploc bag suitable for coating the fish. Whisk the beer or soda water into the flour in the mixing bowl until smooth. Coat the fish first in the flour mixture then in the batter.
• Carefully lower the fish into the hot oil, one to two pieces at a time and allow to fry for 7-10 minutes or until the fish is golden and crisp.
• Remove from the oil, drain on kitchen paper then serve with the chips and tartar sauce.

• Fry fish in batches in hot oil about 4 minutes, turning once, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot.

CRISPY FISH & CHIPS

• Fry fish fillets in oil for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.

CRISPY CRISPY FISH

CRISPY BATTER THAT STAYS CRISPY (FOR A LONG TIME)

Steps:

• Place the flour/starch, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir to mix everything. Only prepare your batter when you are ready to fry your food.
• Pour about 1 1/2 to 2-inch of oil into a stainless steel pot or Dutch oven. Preheat the oil to 330 F. It helps if you have deep-fryer thermometer if not, dip a stick end of wooden spatula, bamboo skewer, or chopsticks into the oil. If there are steady bubbles around it, the oil is most likely more than 330 F, but the temperature will drop once you put in the things you are going to fry. As long as it doesn't bubble vigorously, if it is, lower the heat a bit and test again
• Pour in the ice cold water into the flour mixture and use a chopstick to stir. Do not over stir with all-purpose flour. It's okay to have some lumps in the batter. If you over mix the flour batter, it will turn out gummy and absorbs too much oil. If you are preparing gluten-free batter, this is not an issue because cornstarch doesn't have gluten in it
• Coat the food with the batter and fry the food. Another important note is not to overcrowd and frying too many. If you lower the oil temperature too much, the batter will be greasy, soggy, and almost definitely will not stay crispy (if at all). This step is to cook the food inside the batter. Depending on what you are frying, follow the instruction on the time
• Remove from the oil to a rack. Let them cool down for at least 10 minutes before you go for the second frying. You can even stop at this step if you are prepping ahead. Keep the half-fried food in the fridge and do the second frying just right before serving, whenever that is
• Remove any crumbs from the oil and bring it back up to hot again over high heat. This time we need about 375 F. Use a thermometer if you have one. If you don't have one, again, use the stick end of wooden spatula, bamboo skewer or chopstick to test the oil. The bubbles will be steady. When it's ready, fry the food for the second time. This round should be quicker. The food will turn golden brown too. This step is to crisp up the food further
• Place the fried food on a rack set on a baking sheet. You can keep the rest warm in an oven at around 200 F and serve when you are done with frying all

CRISPY OVEN FISH

Steps:

• Put milk in a shallow bowl.
• Combine potato chips, parmesan, and thyme in another shallow dish.
• Dip fish in milk, then coat with potato chip mixture.
• Sprinkle a greased baking dish with the bread crumbs.
• Put fish over crumbs; drizzle with butter.
• Bake, uncovered at 500* for 12 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

CRISPY FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oil in a large pot to 300 degrees F. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a tray with paper towels.
• Cut the potatoes into large wedges, about 10 per potato. Fry the potatoes for around 4 minutes. (They will be soggy.) Remove them to the lined tray and pat them dry. Turn the oil to 375 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle the fish all over with salt. Combine 1/2 cup flour and 1 teaspoon turmeric on a plate, then season with salt. Dredge the fish in the flour mixture and let sit on the plate. Mix the baking soda with the remaining 2 cups flour and 2 teaspoons turmeric in a second bowl. Season well with salt. Slowly whisk in the beer until the batter has a pancake-batter consistency (you might not use it all). Fold in the egg whites. Adjust with more or less flour or beer as needed.
• Line a sheet tray with a wire rack. Fry the potatoes at 375 degrees F until crispy, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the rack and season with salt immediately. Hold the chips in the oven while you fry the fish.
• Lower the fry oil to 250 degrees F and line a plate with paper towels. Pat the excess flour from the fish, then coat in the batter. Gently lower the fish into the oil and fry until golden brown and the fish is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the fish to the lined plate and season with salt. Serve with Tartar Sauce, chips and lemon wedges.
• Combine the mayonnaise, pickles, capers, peppers, lemon zest, lemon juice and dill in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper and mix until combined.

CRISPY BAKED FISH WITH TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees and set a rack in the upper part. In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, capers, pickles, herbs and Worcestershire sauce. Using a Microplane, finely grate the garlic into the bowl, then grate in the zest of the lemon. (Hold onto the lemon; you'll use the juice later.) Stir to combine and season the tartar sauce to taste with salt and lots of pepper.
• In a small bowl, stir together the panko and olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Pat the fish dry on all sides and season lightly all over with salt and pepper. Transfer to a lightly greased or foil-lined sheet pan. Coat the top with a thin layer of the tartar sauce (a scant tablespoon per fillet). Sprinkle the panko evenly on top (about 2 tablespoons per fillet), pressing gently to adhere.
• Bake the fish on the top rack until almost cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes for fillets between ½- and ¾-inch-thick (though you should check earlier, if using a thinner fish). An instant-read thermometer should read somewhere between 125 and 130 degrees when inserted into the thickest part of the fish.
• Meanwhile, add 1 tablespoon juice from the lemon to the tartar sauce and cut the remaining lemon into 4 wedges for serving.
• When the fish is nearly cooked through, switch the oven to broil. Broil the fish on the top rack until the bread crumbs are golden and the fish flakes easily and registers 140 degrees in the thickest part, 2 to 3 minutes. Eat with a spoonful of tartar sauce, more black pepper and a squeeze of lemon. (Any extra tartar sauce will keep for up to a week in the fridge.)

CRISPY FISH BITES RECIPE

Steps:

• To make the sauce, mix the mayonnaise with the capers, parsley and the juice of half the lemon. Spoon into a bowl and chill until ready to serve.
• Cut the fish into finger-sized pieces. Place the flour on a plate and season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl and place the breadcrumbs on a separate plate.
• Dip the fish first into the seasoned flour, then the eggs and finally the breadcrumbs, ensuring they are well coated.
• Half fill a large, deep saucepan with the oil and heat until a crust of bread will brown in 40 seconds.
• Fry the fish in the hot oil, in batches, so that the temperature of the oil is not lowered, until golden brown, about 2-3 mins. Drain well on kitchen paper and serve with the sauce and the remaining lemon cut into wedges.

CRISPY FRIED GEFILTE FISH

Steps:

• Slice the prepared loaf of gefilte fish into eight equal pieces.
• Place the cornstarch into a bowl. Coat each gefilte slice with the cornstarch, tapping off the excess. Set aside.
• Prepare two bowls. In the first bowl, beat the egg well. In the second bowl, combine bread crumbs, kosher salt, black pepper, sesame seeds, tarragon, and paprika.
• Now dip each slice into the egg, coating it and letting the excess drip off. Then dip into the bread crumb mixture, flipping to cover fully, patting some onto the slice if necessary.
• Chill the slices in the fridge for at least 10 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat your oil to 356 degrees Fahrenheit. If frying on the stovetop, use a thermometer to keep the temperature of the oil between 350 and 360 degrees.
• Prepare the sauce. Mix all of the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl until completely combined.
• Fry the slices in batches until golden brown and crispy. Serve with the sauce.
