Food Around the World - Fish and Chips

British Cuisine has been called uninspiring. Many celebrity chefs have changed that with their restaurants and TV shows. I decided to include a recipe for fish and chips for England as this is the food I remember best from my visit there. Cod or Plaice would normally be used, but you can use any firm white fleshed fish.

500g white flesh fish

1 cup flour

1t salt

1 egg, separated

1T oil

1 cup of larger

salt and pepper to taste.

Make the batter by mixing all the ingredients in a food processor. Whisk the egg white until firm and fold into the batter. Heat sunflower oil in a large saucepan. Season the fish fillets and dip in the batter. Fry in the oil, turning once to cook evenly. Serve with tartare sauce and garnish with fresh parsley.

I make chips in the oven. Preheat the oven to 200C. Wash the chips and cut into slices - I leave the skin on. Take some olive oil and rub it on your hands. Rub each chip in your hands to coat with oil. Bake for an hour.
