Submitted by:

Description

Fish n' Chips is a popular take away and street food that originated in the UK. It is made with deep frying a fish in a batter or bread crumbs and deep fried potatoes. According to some internet source, the first fish n chip shop was opened in London by a Jewish businessman, who married together "Fish fried in Jewish fashion" with chips.

200-300 grams Cream Dory Fish Fillet
Lemon Pepper seasoning or Lemon juice (2-3 tbsp)
1-2 tbsp dried parsely and thyme finely chopped
Japanese bread crumbs
1/2 cup flour
1-2 eggs, beaten
1-2 cups cooking oil for deep frying
salt
1/2 cup Mayonnaise
potatoes, cleaned but unpeeled (i usually leave the skins on, it adds more flavor and crispiness, and more vitamins)
Mc Cormick Fried Chicken Season or Hamburger seasoning
Optional (I put onion powder and celery powder on the potato coats)

Preparation

Chips
Any french fries that you can buy from the supermarket or u can make your own.

For the Fillet:
You can cut the cream dory fillet in bite size, as small as 2-3 inches long, 1 inch wide, and half an inch thick, or as big as the palm of your hand. It depends on your preference. Set aside the fillet.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then set aside.
In another dish, mix the flour, japanese bread crumbs, lemon pepper, dried parsely, thyme, and salt.
Heat the oil in pan. Dip all the fillet in the egg wash then coat with the crumb mix. Deep fry each side for a minute. Drain and put in plate with paper towels.



For the Chips:
Cut the potatoes 3 inches long and 1/2 inch thick, soak in ice water if you haven't finish slicing the rest to prevent the potatoes from browning.
In a bowl or deep dish, mix the remaining flour, Chicken seasoning or Hamburger seasoning, onion powder, celery powder, salt and pepper. Drain the potatoes from the ice water, then coat with the flour mix. You can deep fry for 2-3 minutes or you can put the potatoes in the freezer for an hour or two, for crispier texture and for the flour mixture to stick well to the potatoes.



For the Dip:
Mix mayonaise with the remaining lemon pepper, parsely, and thyme. Season with salt.
