Savor the timeless taste of New England-style Fish & Chips, a culinary tradition cherished for generations. Prepared with Drum Rock Fis-Chic Wonder Batter & Breader, this recipe ensures an authentic and delightful experience.
Classic New England-Style
Ingredients and Equipment for the Classic Style:
2 pieces (8 oz. each) of white flaky fish (cod or haddock work best)
2 cups of Drum Rock Fis-Chic Wonder Batter & Breader
1 cup of water
1 large mixing bowl
High-quality frying oil
Fryolator
Fry basket
Paper plate or towels
Preheat the Fryolator: Fill the fryolator with high-quality frying oil and set it to 350°F.
Prep the Fish: Ensure your fish is thoroughly defrosted if it was frozen. Divide the fish fillets into four smaller pieces for easier handling during the dredging and frying process.
Create the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of Drum Rock Fis-Chic Wonder Batter & Breader with water. Stir gradually until you achieve a batter akin to crepe batter consistency. Adjust the water as needed for your desired batter thickness.
Coat and Fry the Fish: Once your oil reaches the proper temperature, fully coat the fish pieces in the wet batter, allowing any excess to drip off before gently placing them in the hot oil. When using a smaller at-home fryer, avoid overloading.
Achieve Golden Perfection: Ensure even cooking by flipping the fish to attain an even, golden brown on all sides. Cooking time varies between 2 and 3 minutes per piece, depending on the thickness of the fillet.
Serve Hot: Once the fish is cooked, carefully remove it from the oil and drain it on a paper towel or plate. Serve while still hot.
