Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into strips
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
1 ½ pounds cod fillets

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a medium-size bowl of cold water. In a separate medium-size mixing bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Stir in the milk and egg; stir until the mixture is smooth. Let mixture stand for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oil in a large pot or electric skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Fry the potatoes in the hot oil until they are tender. Drain them on paper towels.
  • Dredge the fish in the batter, one piece at a time, and place them in the hot oil. Fry until the fish is golden brown. If necessary, increase the heat to maintain the 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) temperature. Drain well on paper towels.
  • Fry the potatoes again for 1 to 2 minutes for added crispness.
