Fish and Chips Day
Posted by Joseph Wilson
So I was off today and decided to try a fish and chips recipe I've been working on. Heres the recipe:
Fish And Chips
## 1 Cup Rice flour
1 Cup AP Flour
# 1 tablespoon baking powder
# 3 teaspoons salt, plus more for seasoning
# 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
# 1 (12-ounce) can Mountain Dew
# 1 large egg, lightly beaten
# 2 (8-ounce) Mahi Mahi fillets cut into strips
# 1/2 cup rice flour, for dredging
# Malt vinegar, for serving
Directions-
Crank the oil temperature up to 375 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. Combine Mountain Dew and egg
and pour into the flour mixture. Whisk to a smooth batter. Spread the rice flour on a plate. Dredge the fish pieces in the rice flour and then dip them into the batter, letting the excess drip off. Fry for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown.
Chips:
Potatoes
Canola Oil
seasoning (to taste)
Wash and cut potatoes into halves and then cut into 3rds yielding 6 wedges per potato. Cover in oil and season. Cook in a for 20 minutes at 450. turn over and cook on the otherside for another 20 minutes.
You guys really should try this sometime! The mountain dew really gives the fish a nice citrus flavor and makes the batter light and fluffy.
I also tried to make some scotch eggs which were good but not my favorite...
