Perfect fish and chips!
Okay, to be honest, I didn't actually make the chips because I didn't have the time and I didn't want to spend that much time frying.
I did, however, follow the recipe for the fried fish and it came out beautifully. This is a beer battered fish that is first dredged in a flour, spices and cornstarch mixture, then in the beer batter, and finally in the flour mixture again.
The two secret ingredients - cornstarch and baking powder - contributed to a very crunchy exterior on the fish. The triple coating stayed on the fish nicely while the inside was nice and moist.
Delicious!!
