Resting Time 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 10 minutes
Servings 2

Ingredients
  

  • BUBBL’R tropical dream’r for serving
  • 1-2 Russet potatoes thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp. Apple Cider Vinegar
  • ½ lb. cod skinless and boneless
  • ½ cup + 2 tbsp. all purpose flour divided
  • ½ tsp. baking powder
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. paprika
  • ½ cup + 2 tbsp. COLD Ginger Beer
  • olive oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Add the thinly sliced potatoes to a bowl with COLD water. Add the vinegar and stir to combine. Set aside for 20-30 minutes. In the meantime, prepare a pan by placing a wire rack on top.
  • Drain and pat dry with a kitchen cloth.
  • Heat up 3-4” of frying oil in a large sauce pan until 350F, or until hot and glistening. The oil should never get to a smoking point or it’s too hot. Allow time to cool down if so.
  • Fry the potatoes for 2-3 minutes, until lightly golden. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to the wire rack. You will fry it for the second time after preparing the fish.
  • In a bowl, combine the ½ cup flour, baking powder, salt, and paprika. Mix well. Add the ginger beer and mix until a thick but still loose batter.
  • Slice the cod into strips then dust with the remaining 2 tablespoons flour.
  • Dredge the floured cod into the batter and place into the hot oil to fry until deeply golden, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to the wire rack.
  • Turn up the oil heat to 375F then add the fries to fry a second time for 1-2 minutes, or until crispy and golden.
  • Serve the fish n chips with either tartare sauce or vinegar on the side.
  • Enjoy immediately with BUBBL’R tropical dream’r for a complementary refreshment!
