Beer Battered Fish and Chips

Next time you are craving this, make it at home:
(makes 4 servings)

2 quarts veg. oil, for frying
1&1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted, plus a little more for dusting
1 t. sea* salt
1/2 t. freshly ground* pepper (or you can use cayenne*)
1 12 oz. can or bottle of beer
2 lbs. cod, haddock, or halibut, cut into 4" pieces
Lemon wedges

Heat oil in deep pot or fryer to 350. In a bowl, combine the flour, S&P, and beer. Mix until smooth. Put remaining flour on a shallow large plate, and dust each piece of fish in flour on all sides; shaking off the  excess. Dip in the beer batter, and slowly place 3 or 4 pieces in the hot oil. Cook until the fish is floating and golden brown, about 5-6 mins. Carefully remove, and place on paper towels to drain. Repeat with rest of fish. Serve hot with fries, coleslaw with a pineapple/poppy seed dressing*, MM's tartar sauce* (on a past blog post), and lemon wedges. YUMOLA!!

Today, "Give, Give, then Give some more".

And, have FUN out there!!

Love,

MM
