Fish and chips


This is unbelievably simple.

For the fish:
Crush some salada biscuits (or chips, or savoy crackers, or cornchips, whatever) until they're quite small crumbs. Crack an egg into a dish and slightly beat it. And put some plain flour in another dish.
Take your fish (I used Bassa, but use whatever you want) and put it in flour, then egg, then the crumbs.
Fry it on one side until you can see it cooked more than halfway up the sides, then flip it onto the other side until its cooked though. Try not to flip it more than once, doing so can make the crumbing start to fall off.

For the chips:
Preheat oven to about 200.
Peel your potatos and cut into chips. Boil for about five minutes until almost all cooked through. Then spray some oil over them, and any seasoning you fancy (I used thyme from our garden and salt) and bake until crisp and browned.

For the tartare*:
*not real tartare.
I tried to make tartare but the mayo failed, so I just mixed some yogurt, finely chipped cucumber, and lemon juice.
