Fish And Chips With Tartar Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange one oven rack at lowest rack setting; place second rack in middle of oven. Preheat oven to 425°. In a small bowl, mix sour cream, chopped pickle, pickle juice and pepper. Refrigerate, covered, until serving., Cut potatoes into 1/4-in. julienne strips. Rinse well and pat dry. In a large bowl, toss with oil, salt and pepper; transfer to a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake on bottom oven rack until golden brown and tender, 30-35 minutes, turning once., For fish, in a shallow bowl, mix bread crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Place egg whites in a separate shallow bowl. Dip fish in egg whites, then in crumb mixture, patting to help coating adhere., Transfer to a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Spritz fish with cooking spray. Bake on top oven rack 14-16 minutes or until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork. Serve with fries, sour cream mixture and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Fill fryer with vegetable oil to its maximum level, or fill a deep pot no more than halfway with the oil. Preheat fryer to 350 degrees F.
• Fill a gallon resealable plastic bag with 3 cups wheat cereal. Using a rolling pin, lightly crush cereal into small crumbs. Set aside.
• In a shallow bowl, combine flour, ranch dressing mix, and salt. Coat fish with seasoned flour mixture then shake off excess flour. Dip in eggs and roll in crushed cereal. Continue with remaining fillets. Carefully add 3 to 4 pieces in fryer and cook until golden brown and crisp. Repeat with remaining fillets.
• Serve with tartar sauce and seasoned chips.
• In a small dish, strain relish and discard juices. In a separate bowl, combine strained relish with mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice. Stir thoroughly. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with fried halibut.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Prick the potatoes all over with a fork and place them on a baking sheet. Bake until knife-tender, 30 to 45 minutes. (If you like, you can do this the night before and refrigerate the potatoes until ready to cut and fry.) Cut each potato into 6 or 8 wedges, depending on size.
• Heat about 4 inches of oil in a large, heavy pot until a deep-frying thermometer registers 375 degrees F. In two batches, fry the potato wedges until crispy and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt. Set aside and keep warm.
• In a large bowl, combine the 2 cups flour, cornstarch, baking powder and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Make a well in the center and add the egg yolks. Gradually whisk in the club soda, working your way out from the center to form a smooth batter.
• Season the 1 cup flour with salt and pepper. Dredge the fish fillets on both sides in the seasoned flour and then dip them in the batter. Fry a few pieces at a time until crispy and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
• When the fish is done, place some parsley leaves in the hot oil and fry until crispy and slightly translucent, 15 seconds. Drain on paper towels.
• Serve the fish with lemon halves, crispy fried parsley leaves and homemade tartar sauce.
• Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, cornichons, capers, parsley, tarragon and lemon juice in a small bowl. Refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees and set a rack in the upper part. In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, capers, pickles, herbs and Worcestershire sauce. Using a Microplane, finely grate the garlic into the bowl, then grate in the zest of the lemon. (Hold onto the lemon; you'll use the juice later.) Stir to combine and season the tartar sauce to taste with salt and lots of pepper.
• In a small bowl, stir together the panko and olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Pat the fish dry on all sides and season lightly all over with salt and pepper. Transfer to a lightly greased or foil-lined sheet pan. Coat the top with a thin layer of the tartar sauce (a scant tablespoon per fillet). Sprinkle the panko evenly on top (about 2 tablespoons per fillet), pressing gently to adhere.
• Bake the fish on the top rack until almost cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes for fillets between ½- and ¾-inch-thick (though you should check earlier, if using a thinner fish). An instant-read thermometer should read somewhere between 125 and 130 degrees when inserted into the thickest part of the fish.
• Meanwhile, add 1 tablespoon juice from the lemon to the tartar sauce and cut the remaining lemon into 4 wedges for serving.
• When the fish is nearly cooked through, switch the oven to broil. Broil the fish on the top rack until the bread crumbs are golden and the fish flakes easily and registers 140 degrees in the thickest part, 2 to 3 minutes. Eat with a spoonful of tartar sauce, more black pepper and a squeeze of lemon. (Any extra tartar sauce will keep for up to a week in the fridge.)
