Fish and Chips in Beer Batter

This is not one of my own recipes, it's just standard beer battered fish and chips which you can find all over the internet. So technically I'm not steeling it from anyone. It's not that difficult to make, but it is sooo good. I'm still trying to perfect the recipe but I'm getting there.

I don't really work with grams and milliliters with this recipe, I just keep adding beer and flour until the batter seems okay.

Beer battered Cod with chips and broccoli (1 person)

• enough cod for one person (For the Dutchies: kabeljauw)
• Flour + ts baking powder
• 1 beer
• 3 medium sized potatoes if you want to make the chips yourself.
• 1 broccoli

Turn on your fryer, 190C/275F, and your oven (same degrees). 

Make sure your fish isn't frozen anymore, or else the batter wont stick to your fish!

Peal the potatoes and slice them into a shape you like. Boil these in water with some salt for about 4 to 6 minutes. Drain them in a colander and let them dry.

Now start making the batter. Make sure it has a nice thick texture so it will stick to your fish. Make sure you have another bowl with just flour in it .

Season your fish with salt and pepper and then dip them into the batter. Then dip it in the bowl with the flour and then again in the batter. Then put it in the fryer. Make sure it doesn't touch the basket because it will stick to it. Leave the fish in for about 4 minutes. When you get it out put it in the oven so it will stay nice, crispy and warm.

Boil the broccoli, 4-5 minutes.

Now fry your chips until golden, also about 4 to 5 minutes.

You can make a garlicsauce to go with the cod:

• spoon of yoghurt
• spoon of mayo
• peper
• garlic

Mix all these things together and omnomnom!

Not a difficult recipes, but things can go wrong, so stay focused and enjoy.
