Serves

4 persons

Directions

  1. Begin by ‘pre-frying’ the chips (fries). You will need to fry them twice. Add 3-inch depth of oil to a large pot heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. Heat oil to 325-degrees F.
  2. Carefully add chips to hot oil. Tip: work in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry the chips for 3 minutes, drain, and spread out on a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
  3. Prepare the fish by mixing 1/2 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and black pepper in a shallow bowl or dish. Then, set the mixture aside.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 cup of flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder. Gradually whisk in beer until smooth. Tip: the batter should be the consistency of thick cream. If the batter is too thick, gradually stream in cold water 1 tablespoon at a time. If it’s too thin, sprinkle in more flour 1 teaspoon at a time until it thickens up to correct consistency.
  5. Increase oil temperature to 375-degrees F.
  6. Dredge the pangasius in a dry flour mixture. Tap off excess and dip the fish in beer batter.
  7. Working in batches, carefully add battered fish and the ‘pre-fried’ chips to oil and cook until golden brown, approximately 5-7 minutes.
  8. Transfer cooked fish and chips to a paper towel-lined baking sheet or cooling rack. Sprinkle with salt while still warm.
  9. Serve with malt vinegar or tartar sauce.

Enjoy your meal!
