This is a slightly healthier alternative to chippy fish and chips because of the potato wedges, well that’s what I keep telling myself!

Get the potato wedges on first as they will take the longest. Heat the oven to 190fan and chop up a couple of large potatoes into wedges, season with salt, pepper and olive oil then pop in the oven. Depending on how thick  you’ve made the wedges these will take between 35-45 minutes.

Next make the batter. Weigh out 100g of plain flour in to a jug and add a teaspoon of baking powder and a pinch of salt. Give it mix then pour in 150ml of beer and whisk until you have a smooth batter. Refrigerate until 10 minutes before the wedges are cooked.

When you’re ready to start cooking your fish pour some oil into a frying pan so that it’s approx 2cm deep and turn the hob on to a medium to high temperature.  Cut some cod fillets into strips then when the oil is up to temperature dip a strip into the batter then lower gently in to the oil, cook for a couple of minutes on each side, then remove from the pan. Ensure that the fish is cooked inside and the batter is golden and crispy, you don’t want the oil too hot so that it burns the batter before it cooks the fish so adjust the heat accordingly – this is why I always try one goujon first. When you have the temperature correct, get your peas on then finish frying the rest of the goujons.

Serve everything hot!
