CRISPY BEER BATTER FISH & CHIPS
Virtually every beer-battered fish recipe looks crispy coming out of the fryer, and some even stay crispy for a few minutes, but then the inevitable sogginess sets in. Well, with this simple formula, and a few easy tricks, you can achieve a fried fish where the last bite is as crisp as the first. The keys are keeping your batter really cold and patting your fish really dry. Serve over a bed of salt 'n vinegar chips with tartar sauce and lemon.

Steps:
- Whisk self-rising flour, rice flour, and baking powder together in a bowl. Freeze until ready to use.
- Pat fish as dry as possible. Cut pieces lengthwise to get eight 1-inch thick strips. Place rice flour on a plate and season with salt. Dust fish lightly with the mixture and shake off excess. Cover a plate with crinkled foil to make a quick drying rack; place fish on top.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Pour beer into the flour mixture and whisk, adding more as needed, until batter is the consistency of thick pancake batter. Dip fish pieces into the batter to coat; lift out and let excess drip off.
- Fry fish in batches until golden brown, dunking occasionally if needed, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.

CLASSIC BEER-BATTERED FISH AND CHIPS
Sometimes the simplest dishes are the hardest to get right. This method for the classic fish and chips will give you perfect results every time. This method requires some extra preparation time to soak the chips before cooking, and to drain the batter; but it's worth it.

Steps:
- For the chips 1. Peel the potatoes and cut into thick chips. Soak in cold water for 30 minutes.* Drain and transfer to a pot with two litres of fresh cold water and add the white vinegar. Bring to a low simmer, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Drain the chips and arrange on a baking tray. Dry the chips in a low oven (about 60C, fan-forced) for 30 minutes. 2. For the beer batter, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour with the beer and stir to combine to a thick batter. Don't mix the batter too much. A few lumps is fine. Rest in the fridge for at least 20 minutes. 3. Heat the oil to 200C and fry the chips in batches for three minutes each, allowing the oil to return to temperature between batches. Drain the chips on a wire rack or absorbent paper, uncovered for 20 minutes. You can freeze the chips at this point for frying later. 4. When ready to serve, fry the chips again at 200C for a further three minutes until golden brown. Toss the chips with plenty of salt and keep warm in the oven while you cook the fish. * Soaking removes excess starch and stops the potato straws from sticking together and becoming gluggy when they are cooked. For the fish 5. Reduce the heat of the oil to 180C. Dust the flathead fillets lightly with the reserved flour and dip into the batter. Shake off any excess batter and fry the fish for about four minutes until the batter is golden. Drain on a wire rack and season with salt. 6. Serve the fish and chips with wedges of lemon, tartare sauce and an undressed crisp green salad.

A light, crispy batter that turns golden and bubbly. Fantastic for frying fish, calamari rings, prawns, shellfish, pineapple or banana fritters and good old Aussie potato cakes.

Steps:
- Using a fork, mix the melted butter through the flour and salt.
- Add the soda water or beer and mix. Don't worry about the lumps of butter. They disappear while frying and make the crispy batter bubbly.
- To make Aussie potato cakes, take a large potato and cut into thin, large slices.
- Coat with flour and then dip into the batter before frying.

Steps:
- Cut potatoes into fries move into a large bowl filled with cold water.
- Whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, and cayenne in a medium-sized bowl. Slowly whisk in the beer, mixing until no lumps remain and the batter is smooth. Place in the fridge for at least 15 minutes, but no longer than an hour.
- Heat the oil in a large dutch oven of heavy-bottomed pan over high heat. Use a deep-fry thermometer and watch the oil temperature carefully.
- Drain the potatoes from the water and use a salad spinner or paper towels to dry the potatoes as much as possible.
- When the oil reaches 320 degrees, cook the potatoes in batches for 2-3 minutes or until they are pale and floppy. Remove them from the oil and place on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
- Increase the oil temperature to 350 degrees.
- While the oil is heating, dip the fish strips into the corn starch and tap and brush off as much of the excess as you can.
- When the oil is 350 degrees, dip the fish into the batter and slowly lower it into the oil. Cook only 3-4 pieces of fish at a time, as to not crowd the pan. When the batter is set on one side, turn the fish over and cook on the other side until golden brown. Repeat until all the fish is cooked and keep the fish hot in a 200-degree oven, on a baking sheet lined with a baking rack, while preparing the fries.
- Increase the oil temperature to 375 degrees. When the oil reaches temperature, refry the potatoes in batches until they are golden brown. Drain on paper towels, season with salt and serve the fish and chips with fresh lemon juice, malt vinegar, and tartar sauce.

Steps:
- For the chips: Boil the potatoes in salted water for 10 minutes or until they just start to soften. Drain and allow to dry on a wire rack for 10-30 minutes.
- Heat a large pot of vegetable/canola oil until hot. Carefully add the potatoes in batches and fry until golden brown and crisp. Drain with a slotted spoon and place back onto the wire rack. Keep the chips in a warm oven while you fry the fish.
- For the fish: Combine the flours and salt in a large mixing bowl. Transfer half to a shallow dish / ziploc bag suitable for coating the fish. Whisk the beer or soda water into the flour in the mixing bowl until smooth. Coat the fish first in the flour mixture then in the batter.
- Carefully lower the fish into the hot oil, one to two pieces at a time and allow to fry for 7-10 minutes or until the fish is golden and crisp.
- Remove from the oil, drain on kitchen paper then serve with the chips and tartar sauce.

CRISPY BEER BATTERED FISH
Recipe video above. This makes a light, crispy fish batter like you've never had before! Stays crispy for a good 15 - 20 min, though my fish disappears long before that.The yeast and carbonation in beer makes the batter puffy just like you get at good fish 'n chip shops. Meanwhile the rice flour + shock of ice cold batter hitting the hot oil makes it super crispy. Normal wheat flour doesn't cut it - the batter goes soggy within minutes!You can't taste the beer at all, and the alcohol gets cooked out. Crispy Seasoned Chips pictured - recipe coming soon. Cooks WITH the fish - handy!

Steps:
- Dry & cut fish: Pat fish dry using paper towels or a tea towel. Cut into 7 x 3cm / 3 x 1¼" batons, or larger fillets if you prefer. If you have very thick fillets, cut in half horizontally (Note 1)
- Dusting bowl: Place ¼ cup rice flour in a shallow bowl.
- Heat oil: Heat 6cm / 2" - 3" oil in a large heavy based pot over medium high heat to 190°C/375°F.
- Salt & dust: While oil is heating, sprinkle 3 or 4 pieces of fish with a pinch of salt, then coat in rice flour and shake off excess. You can leave them like this for up to 10 minutes.
- Cold batter: Just before cooking, whisk together the flour, rice flour, baking powder and salt. Add very cold beer into the batter and whisk just until incorporated evenly into the flour. Do not over-mix, do not worry about flour lumps (Note 4). It should be a fairly thin batter but fully coat the back of a spoon. If too thick, add beer 1 tsp at a time.
- Dredge fish: Dunk a piece of fish in the batter, the let the excess drip off very briefly.
- Fry 3 minutes: Carefully lower into oil, dropping it in away from you, one piece at a time. Don't crowd the pot; fry in batches. Fry for 3 minutes, flipping after about 2 minutes, until deep golden.
- Drain: Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining fish. Serve hot! However it will stay crisp for 15 - 20 minutes. (Note 5 for larger batch cooking).
- Serve with Tartare Sauce, lemon wedges and a leafy green salad on the side dressed with a classic vinaigrette. Easy single-fry-ultra-crunchy chips coming soon! In the meantime, use oven baked wedges!

UNBELIEVABLE FISH BATTER
In the early 1950's, I received this recipe on an open-line, talk-radio show. It makes the lightest, crispiest batter imaginable. This makes enough to coat approximately 2 pounds of fish.

Alternatively you can use a thermometer and cook them once your oil reaches a temperature of 175 degrees Celsius.
