Fish & Chips

Participated in Theme Of The Week at Nurkochen, a fun game in which participants baked or cooked something based on the selected theme, and I came up with all these simple dishes. That's me, the type who looks for easy and simple stuffs to do, nevermind that others would laugh at me when they saw what I had produced!

First week, the theme was Lemon. I cooked Fish & Chips. Thought it would be easy but ended up spending so much time just shredding the cabbage for the Coleslaw. I sniggered when I saw the suggested theme because I was happy that I could kill two birds with one stone, as I had already planned to cook this for Ni’s (my naughty girl) birthday.



Fish & Chips

Method:

Marinate dory fish slices with generous amount of lemon juice, pepper, salt and fish sauce.

Smack on the plain flour, dunk the whole slice of fish into a bowl of battered egg, cover it up with bread crumbs and deep fry till you’re happy. Deep fry the fries too.

Don't need to buy tartar sauce for your Fish and Chips. Simply squeeze 1/2 lemon to the mayonnaise and mix them well. It goes very well as "tartar sauce" with fresh lemon smell!
