FISH & CHIPS
4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into strips
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon seafood seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup sparkling water
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
1 1/2 pounds cod fillets
Place potatoes in a medium-size bowl of cold water. In a separate medium-size mixing bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, cornstarch, seafood seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir in the sparkling water or beer stir until the mixture is smooth. Let mixture stand for 20 minutes.
Preheat the oil in a large pot or electric skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Fry the potatoes in the hot oil until they are tender. Drain them on paper towels.
Dredge the fish in the batter, one piece at a time, and place them in the hot oil. Fry until the fish is golden brown. If necessary, increase the heat to maintain the 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) temperature. Drain well on paper towels.
Fry the potatoes again for 1 to 2 minutes for added crispness.
