Ingrediants
Batter
- 100 g flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon of ground pepper and / or salt (optional)
- 125ml cold water or buttermilk or cold beer

Steps
Method 1 of 3: Fish with Batter
Step 1. Make sure the fish is completely thawed
You can use any type of fish; in England they usually use cod. If your fish was frozen, leave it overnight in the refrigerator so it can thaw easily, staying fresh.
Step 2. Take a deep pan and coat the bottom with vegetable oil, put it on the stove over medium-low heat
Step 3. Make sure the batter is homogeneous and well blended and pour it into a flat plate so as to be able to coat the fish properly
Step 4. Take the fish and place it gracefully into the batter, coat both sides
Step 5. Place the fish in the pan gently to prevent the hot oil from splashing
Each side should cook for about 4-7 minutes, but each stove is different, so flip it every so often when you see the sides start to turn golden
Step 6. Once cooked, place it on absorbent paper to remove excess oil
Method 2 of 3: Breaded Fish Alternative
Step 1. Turn on the oven at 175 ° C
Take a plate and grease it with oil or non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2. Cover the fish with the batter, lay it on the plate and put it in the oven for 10 minutes or until you see it starting to brown
Method 3 of 3: Chips
Step 1. Take the potatoes (at will) and peel them; you can leave them with the peel if you prefer
Step 2. Take a knife and cut the potatoes into thin slices lengthwise so that they look like the ones you buy
Step 3. Cook the fries
-
Cook them in a pan. As you did for the fish, take a deep pan and coat the bottom with the vegetable oil. Put it on low heat and add the potato slices. Move them so they are covered in oil and sprinkle them with the dressing. Cook each side for about 20 minutes or until you notice the edges turn golden. Stick them with a fork or knife to see if they are soft and then cooked.
