Cut the potatoes into thick batons and soak in cold water for 15 minutes.
Dry the potatoes and par-fry them in 140°C oil for 8 minutes.
Dry the fish fillets and rub them with salt and black pepper.
Mix the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and cold sparkling water just until smooth.
Raise the oil to 180°C and fry the potatoes a second time for 4 minutes, until golden.
Dip the fish in the batter and fry for 6 minutes, until crisp.
Drain the excess oil and serve hot with lemon.
💡 Tip: Dry the fish well before coating; wet fillets thin the batter and reduce crispness in the oil.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot in paper style with mushy peas, lemon wedge, and optional malt vinegar.
