Vis en Chips. Brit assault on the world's arteries

[Kradmelder]

I made fish and chips, and onion rings, at home. Pommie food.

The batter came out very crispy and tasty, but didnt stick totally. still tasted nice though. all that grease is very filling

Not quite like making schnitzel. So what did I miss?

For the batter I used 1 cup flour, 1 tsp baking powder, some bicarb and salt, 1 tsp curry powder, 1 cup water and one egg. let stand a bit, dip fish in and fry at 150 C.

dipped the onion rings in the same batter.

I diluted the Brit grease assault with a salad

At least both kids have hockey tomorrow (the real one, not the one with knives under your feet), to work it off. I just must bike back and forth between 2 the 2 events.

Tomorrow we are going to a braai so back to a piece of red meat over coals, with all the fat drained out of it.

Gotta flour the fish before dipping it in beer batter. Done properly it shouldn't be greasy or drippy at all. Oh, and you need bread and butter to go with a fish dinner like that

tsk where is the deep fried lard?

Mechanically processed meats (sausages, kebab, burgers, pies which should also be fried)

And you did fry it in lard right?

If not much fail..

The salad looks nice.

(believe me, this is a RARE thing for me to admit to )


Although, what fat did you use to fry that stuff?
It does look *very* greasy.

Hint: no self-respecting Pom puts curry in the batter

Most successful chip shops, in London at least, are run by Bubbles or Eye-ties.

[unitynotsocri...]

bubbles?.....anyway Krad you 've done well,except for not flouring before battering,drop the curry ,man up on PROCESSED peas,

it must be hard in SA,not being able to find the right authentic english asians to cook it,like the Malaysian ones from china,or Kashmiri ones who hate pakistanis and racist hindu's.

have the oil hot,season batter with salt/pepper/hint of fennel,sqeeze lemon over spiced batter.

the chips should be wacked in the oil at hot hot temp,shake them in basket a few times half way through.

salt,vingar,mush peas,black peas(from west yorkshire?,too tight to pay for food dye?) pickled eggs.brown sauce and mayonaisse.

if you fancy trying some more brit cooking you could try,haggis n chips,with bottle of buckies and deep fried batterd mars bar,

or

deep fried piglet and leeks,stolen english piglet cooked with a stick shoved up its arse (english/welsh border recipie) served with Feelinfoul beer and sherbet ufo's for sweet.

It comes originally from Cockney* rhyming slang and has very little insulting racial overtone, so no point you trying to use it, Kradhouse, hahaha






*I've been here FAR too long, LOL, I shouldn't even know Cockney rhyming slang, let alone use it in everyday language.

Although it took me literally YEARS to realise that when (in the film Snatch), Bricktop says "I'll cut your fucking Jacobs off" that he meant Jacobs Crackers/knackers

As said, flour the fish. The only other thing I can think of that's missing is a decent-sized gherkin.

Curse you, Kradders!

I was going to go for the "broccoli with crispy bacon and crumbled Stilton" option for dinner.

(that is : if I can hack the slime off the Stilton and get away with not poisoning myself ...)


... but now I *really* fancy some onion rings
