Fish and Chips , by Jimbo Usually, we buy our Fish and Chips from the Chip Shop just along our street and it costs us about £20. The standard is good but ...... Quite fancied Fish and Chips tonight so at 7.45pm I started peeling the potatoes. Chipped the Potatoes , nice and chunky. Then rinsed them under warm water to wash the starch off, increased water temperature and let them soak for 2 minutes. Drained the water off and put them in a microwave bowl and nuked them on full power for 6 minutes. During the 6 minutes I put the chips pan on the gas hob and melted.the lard. When the chips came out of the microwave I Dried the chips off on a tea towel, and put the frozen Fish in batter into the air fryer. Lard up to temperature, chips in pan, fried till just perfect which just happened to be the same time as the Fish was cooked in the air fryer. Served onto my favourite plate. It looks good, doesn't it? Yvonne's looked exactly the same And it was lovely. Total cost £2 for the Fish £0.30 for the Potatoes. So 2 Fish Suppers for £2.30 About £18 less than ordering from the Chip shop. I think my chips are far better. And that is not being arrogant. It's fact. I think my days of ordering from the Chip shop are numbered. I cannot justify paying over the odds for food I can produce here at 1/6 of the price in half an hour. So there you go Fish and Chips by Jimbo What say you
