INSTRUCTIONS
Fish n’ chips
For minty pea mayo
Boil peas and blanch. Pulse peas, garlic, spring onion and rind in a food processor until chopped, transfer to a bowl, stir in mayonnaise and season to taste. Just before serving, stir in lemon juice.
Twice cooked chips
1.2 kg sebago potatoes, peeled, cut into 1cm-thick chips, soaked overnight in cold water, then drained. In the deep fryer bring the sunflower oil to 130C. It’s important to use a cooking thermometer and check the temperature regularly. Using a large, metal, slotted spoon, gently lower half the chips into the hot oil and stir carefully. Fry for ten minutes, or until cooked through but not coloured. Remove the chips from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on plenty of kitchen paper. Repeat the process with the remaining chips. (The chips can be left for several hours at this stage.) When ready to serve, reheat the oil to 190C. With a slotted spoon, lower all the par-cooked chips gently into the fryer and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until crisp and golden-brown. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
