Gather @white fish fillet{600%g}, @potato{900%g}, @all-purpose flour{200%g} and @vegetable oil{1.5%l}.

Soak the cut potatoes in cold water 10 minutes to rinse off starch, then dry thoroughly. ~{10%minutes}

Fry the chips at 130°C/265°F until soft but pale; drain. ~{8%minutes}

Whisk the flour, @baking powder{1%tsp} and a pinch of @salt{}, then whisk in the cold @beer{250%ml} until just combined and still a little lumpy.

Heat the oil to 190°C/375°F. Dust the fish in flour, dip in the batter, and lower in gently.

Fry the fish until deep golden and crisp, turning once. ~{6%minutes}

Return the chips to the hot oil for a second fry until golden and shatteringly crisp. ~{3%minutes}

Drain both on paper towels, salt immediately, and serve with @malt vinegar{}.
