Fish and Chips

A British institution, Fish and Chips is the ultimate comfort food. This recipe will show you how to achieve that perfect pub-style result at home: a large fillet of flaky white fish, encased in a light, crispy, and airy beer batter, served alongside thick, fluffy chips (fries). The beer in the batter not only adds flavor but also helps to create a wonderfully light and crisp texture. While deep-frying can seem intimidating, with a few key tips, you can master it. Serve it the traditional way, with a sprinkle of salt and a generous splash of malt vinegar, and perhaps a side of tartar sauce or mushy peas for the full experience.
