    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.
