Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Fish:

  • 1 pound white fish fillets (like cod or haddock), cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, divided
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup cold sparkling water or club soda

For the Chips:

  • 2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cut into thin matchsticks or mini wedges
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Optional for Serving:

  • Malt vinegar
  • Lemon wedges
  • Tartar sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Rinse and soak the potato sticks or wedges in cold water for at least 30 minutes. Drain and pat completely dry with a towel.
  2. Heat the Oil: Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pot or skillet to 350°F (175°C).
  3. Make the Batter: Whisk together ½ cup flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, pepper, paprika, and sparkling water until smooth. Dredge fish in flour, then dip into batter, and fry in batches until golden and crispy.
  4. Fry the Chips: Fry the dried potato sticks until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
  5. Serve: Serve mini fish and chips with lemon wedges, malt vinegar, or tartar sauce.

Notes

  • Keep fried fish warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven while finishing the rest.
  • For a fun twist, serve in mini paper cones or muffin liners for parties.
  • Air-fry the chips as a lighter option.
