Fish and chips is one of Britain's favourite and most famous take-aways, often accompanied with Chip Shop Curry Sauce. Here is a simple recipe to have that unique melt-in-your-mouth fried fish at home. Ingredients:
deep fat (for frying) or oil (for frying) |
8 medium white fish fillets |
4 ounces self-raising flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 egg |
1 tablespoon butter, melted |
5 fluid ounces milk |
lemon wedge (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Half-fill a deep pan with melted fat or oil. 2. Heat until a faint haze rises from it (or until a bread cube sinks to the bottom of the pan, rises to the top immediately and turns golden in 50 seconds). 3. Sift the flour and salt into a bowl. 4. Beat to a smooth batter with unbeaten egg, butter and milk. 5. Coat 2 pieces of fish with batter. 6. Lift into the pan with a fork or kitchen tongs. 7. Fry until crisp and golden, allowing about 6-8 minutes for large pieces and 4-5 minutes for medium. 8. Remove from the pan and drain on unprinted (white) newspaper. 9. Garnish with lemon wedges, and serve with Fish and Chip Shop Curry Sauce (Recipezaar#17175). |
