Fish And Chips With Salad Food

FISH AND CHIPS SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Spray two rimmed baking sheets with olive oil cooking spray.
• For the fish and chips: Arrange fish in an even layer on one pan, spacing evenly. Arrange fries on the other pan in an even layer. Spray fish and fries with cooking spray. Combine salt, pepper, and paprika in a small bowl; sprinkle fish and fries evenly with half of the seasoning mixture.
• Place the fries on the bottom rack, and the fish on the top rack. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove pans from oven. Flip fish, and toss fries; spray with cooking spray again, and sprinkle with remaining seasoning mixture. Return pans to oven in the same positions. Bake until golden and crispy, about 10 minutes more.
• For the pickled onions: Meanwhile, combine the sliced red onion, 1/2 cup malt vinegar, 1/2 cup water, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until steaming, 3 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes.
• For the dressing: Whisk together the mayonnaise, malt vinegar, 2 tablespoons water, and pickle relish until combined.
• To serve: Add the greens to a large bowl; add the pickled onions and 1/4 cup of the pickling liquid; toss to combine. Divide lettuce evenly among serving bowls. Sprinkle fries and cooked peas evenly over the bowls; top each bowl with 2 to 3 pieces of fish. Drizzle the salads with dressing. Serve with lemon wedges, if you like.

CLASSIC FISH & CHIPS

Steps:

• Cut the potatoes into chips and soak in cold water for 5 mins, then wash until the water runs clear. Tip into a pan of cold water with a pinch of salt and 1 tsp vinegar. Bring to a simmer, then turn down the heat and simmer gently for 10-12 mins until cooked through but not falling apart. Drain gently, then place on a tray in a single layer and chill until needed. Can be prepared a day ahead.
• To make the tartare sauce, chop the cornichons, capers and shallot (finely chop if you prefer a smooth sauce), then combine with the parsley, mayo and a pinch of salt. Will keep chilled for up to 24 hours.
• When you're ready to fry, prepare the batter. Tip the flours and turmeric into a bowl with a pinch of salt, pour over the beer or fizzy water, and mix quickly until everything just comes together to the consistency of double cream - do not over-beat, a few lumps are fine. Keep chilled.
• Pour the oil into a deep, wide pan like a wok, or heat a deep-fat fryer to 180C. If using a pan or wok, ensure that it is no more than two-thirds full with oil. Heat the oil until it is shimmering and carefully lower in the chips using a slotted spoon. Fry for 8-10 mins, gently stirring occasionally until golden and crisp. Transfer to kitchen paper to drain.
• Put a little flour in a dish, then bring the oil you used to cook the chips up to 185C, if you have a thermometer, or until a drizzle of batter sizzles and crisps in less than a minute. Working quickly, dust the fish in flour, then dredge through the batter. Hold the fillet above the batter to let the excess drip back into the bowl, then carefully lower into the oil. Fry the fillets for a minute until the batter is just starting to set, then take a spoon and drizzle the fillets with extra batter to create an even crunchier, wispy coating. Fry the fish for about 4 mins, turning once, until deep golden and crisp. Lift onto some kitchen paper to drain for a minute, then serve with the chips, tartare sauce, and plenty of salt and vinegar.
