This classic British dish may seem intimidating, but with the right technique, you'll create restaurant-quality fish and chips at home. The key is maintaining proper oil temperature and working in batches to ensure everything cooks perfectly. Don't rush the process - the results are well worth the effort!
For best results, serve immediately while everything is hot and crispy. If you prefer a lighter version, you can bake the fish at 425°F for 15-20 minutes after dipping in batter, and make oven fries instead of deep-frying the potatoes.
