    • Mixing bowl<\/li>\n
    • Large pot to precook the potatoes<\/li>\n
    • Ladle<\/li>\n
    • Kitchen towel<\/li>\n

      Instructions:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      Peel potatoes, with a knife cut into 1 centimeter-sized slices and then cut into 1 centimeter-sized sticks. Give the potato-sticks into a mixing bowl with cold water and allow to chill there for about 10 minutes to wash off the excess starch.<\/p>\n

      Next, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and cook the potato sticks for about 4 – 5 minutes. Then lift out the fries with a ladle, drain on a kitchen towel and allow to cool completely.<\/p>\n

      …for the beer batter:<\/em><\/p>\n

      In a mixing bowl briefly stir together 125 grams of flour, 75 grams of cornstarch, 1 heaping teaspoon of baking powder & a good pinch of salt & pepper. Add 200 milliliters of beer and use a whisk to mix all ingredients until well combined and a smooth batter, then set aside.<\/p>\n

      …for the mushy peas:<\/em><\/p>\n

      Bring a small pot of lightly salted water to a boil and blanch the peas in 2 – 3 minutes. Pour the peas into a colander & allow to drain briefly.<\/p>\n

      Next, give the peas along with 1 tablespoon of butter, 50 milliliters of cream and a good pinch of salt and pepper into a high container. Mash the peas with a blender for about 1 minute until creamy, then set aside until serving.<\/p>\n

      …for the cod fillets:<\/em><\/p>\n

      Heat up a large pot or wok with 1\u00bd liters of oil for deep-frying. Prepare a bowl with some flour, turn the cod fillets one at a time in the flour, tapping off the excess flour and then pull it through the prepared beer batter.<\/p>\n

      The oil is hot enough when you dip a wooden stick into the oil & immediately small bubbles arise. Then gently slide the beer battered cod fillets into the hot oil and deep-fry for about 5 minutes until golden brown.<\/p>\n

      Lift out the cod fillets with a ladle, briefly drain on kitchen paper and possibly keep warm in the oven at 150\u00b0C (top\/bottom heat).<\/p>\n

      Next, carefully add the precooked fries to the hot oil and deep-fry for about 6 – 7 minutes until goldenbrown and crispy, then use a ladle to lift out the fries and briefly drain on kitchen paper.<\/p>\n

      Season the fries with salt and serve them along with the fish fillets, some mushy peas & a lemon wedge. Bon Appetite!<\/p>\n
