I haven't eaten a real English fish and chips for almost a year now. But, recently I do made fish and chip at home like real English style fish and chips that we had in England last year. I supposed the tastes even better than a restaurant as mon mari said it was the best fish and chips he's ever had.
It's a big compliment for me and I'm so happy he like it. So, this the simple yet delicious English-style fish and chips recipe.
ENGLISH-STYLE FISH AND CHIPS
Ingredients:
200g fish fillet, cod or white fish
