Method
- Cut Potatoes into wedges leaving the skin on them. Place the chipped potatoes in hot oil.
- Cut down heat to 180°c and fry until golden brown. Check if chips are cooked by squeezing one of the chips. If it mashes in your fingers, there cooked. It takes approx 10mins.
- Dip the washed and dried cod into seasonal flour and drop into Batter mix. Ease gently into hot oil in a deep saucepan or deep fat fryer for approx 5/6minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve with Mushy Peas in small ramekin with Tartar sauce in a small bowl and a wedge of lemon.
