Perfect Fish & Chips Recipe
Servings: 2
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 sole fillets
- Lemon juice
- White pepper
- Salt
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 cup active dry yeast
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/2 cup flour
- 3/4 cup beer
- 1 tablespoon sugar
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Fish:
- Begin by giving the sole fillets a refreshing bath in a mixture of lemon juice and water.
- Season the fillets with a sprinkle of salt and white pepper for that perfect burst of flavor.
- Allow the fillets to chill while you work on the batter, letting the flavors meld together.
-
Create the Batter:
- In a culinary ballet, sprinkle the active dry yeast over warm water and let it dance until fully dissolved.
- In a bowl, combine 1 cup of flour with salt and sugar, creating a well in the center.
- Pour in the dissolved yeast, add oil, and 2/3 of the beer. Stir gently with a wooden spoon until just combined.
- Let this batter stand, covered, in a warm place for 30-35 minutes, allowing it to thicken and froth into perfection.
-
Prepare the Fish for Frying:
- Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and cut each fillet diagonally into 2 pieces.
- Preheat the oven to keep things warm while you work on the next steps.
-
Coat and Fry:
- In a plate, combine the remaining flour with white pepper and salt.
- Heat the oil in a pan, ready for the frying extravaganza.
- Whip the egg white until it forms soft peaks and gracefully fold it into the batter.
-
Bring it All Together:
- Coat each piece of fish with the seasoned flour, ensuring an even distribution.
- Shake off excess flour and, using a two-pronged fork, dip the fish into the batter.
- Hold it over the bowl for 5 seconds to let excess batter drip off, and then carefully lower it into the hot oil.
-
Crispy Perfection:
- Deep fry the fish, turning once, until they achieve a glorious golden crispiness.
- Fry 1-2 pieces at a time, transferring them to paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
