Dear John, I'm from Mangalore, India. I out tried your recipe for the batter. It turned out so well, and my brother, who had lived in England for many years and eaten the famed English fish n chips, liked my preparation very much. He said that it was well nigh professional. I gave full credit to you and felt that I must let you know. Thank you immensely. I hope that one day when I visit England again, I'll be able to meet you. Hugs

Agreed. You don't need the entire spice rack to make good food. For example, i love making cottage pie. The only spices and seasonings i use are salt and pepper. Let the ingredients speak for themselves. I could add some thyme and/or rosemary, and that'd be nice, but you DON'T NEED IT. If your dish is good, it'll be good without needing the "cheats." The natural flavors of the food will carry the dish.

I followed every detail of the recipe. I even used a digital scale to get my measurements correct. I have eaten fish and chips here in the U.S., South America and Europe. This was the best fish and chips that I have ever eaten in my life! My oldest son told me that thisnwas his favorite as well. My youngest son, who doesn’t like fish, tried it and like it a lot. I used halibut and Russet potatoes. Absolutely incredible. Excellent video with proper instructions. I will be joining the Patreon. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Hi John, back in the day, my mum used to use something called 'Bird's Raising Powder' in her batter, it came in a tiny tin. Eventually it became unavailable, so I wrote to Bird's to ask why. They came back and said it had been discontinued but if I wanted a substitute, add a small amount of Turmeric to some baking powder. It's been our family tip for a long time.

The subtleties of accents from the area is beyond me, and in my ignorance, I can only lump them together and label them as ‘Geordie’. Walt Disney has given Winnie the Pooh a Northern burr, which may remind Americans of the character, whereas I like to think of Winnie the Pooh as having an accent of the period in which the book was written, and from that part of East Sussex. It doesn’t matter much really, but I’m going to try the Fish and Chips recipe very soon. There’s nowt better than good Fish and Chips, wherever one lives in the U.K.!

Soak it all in salt n vinegar and into the newspaper bundle, into my reusable string bag and RUN!!! For home lol.

Hi John, Kiwi here and I've been brought up on fish and chips. All through my childhood we usually had Fish and chips every Friday night, then as a uni student, at least once a week and so on ever after. Here the batter is the Intellectual Property and for each chip shop its their point of differentiation. Every suburb has a couple of shops and they are always extra generous on the chips so there is absolutely no need to cook at home. These days I live in Japan and although their Tempura is absolutely divine, they don't really get Fish and Chips. I'm definitely going to try this recipe at home. Thanks so much for sharing.

@@Ionabrodie69 I'm sorry your such an angry little elf. I've traveled to 5 continents and 17 countries, although I'm not the most traveled person I like to think I've been around a bit. To answer your unwarranted attack and accusations we did try a dedicated fish and chip shop, that was recommended by our host.There was a line out the door, I think they were understaffed at the time and unable to keep up, and the quality of the food suffered. My point was not to be critical of all of England, but to compliment Mr. Kirkwood on another outstanding recipe. I follow his channel religiously and fully enjoy his recipes, especially the mince pie recipes. For someone who apparently rides on their righteous high horse you sure do make an excessive amount of assumptions. For someone so intellectually superior I'm sure you know how assume breaks down...........A$$ U ME.

As if by magic, as I sit here peeling me tatties for my fish n chips, John pops into my notifications! I will however be having bread crumbs on my fish as that's how it came out of the packet and it'll be cooked in the air fryer. It's not going to taste as good, but at least it'll sate the hunger watching this vid has given me! Keep em coming John.

Can’t wait to try your recipe! I have tried making fish & chips in the past, but never quite got it right. To say I miss true British cooking is an understatement! I have been making sausage rolls based on your recipe for a while now - I used to have a hard time figuring out just what sausage and seasoning to use & never could hit it until I watched your video. Now I have to keep them handy in the freezer 🤗. I have also made a version using rotisserie chicken, black beans, and other ingredients - my son LOVES them. So, Mr. John…. THANK YOU. Will try the fish & chips this week! J

Thank you John. I am looking forward to trying this recipe; especially after realizing where I have made my mistakes in the past. I failed to add the salt onto the fish fillets and place on paper towels to drain, before cooking. I also made the mistake of adding the salt to my batter. I am so happy to have found your channel a while back, and of course I am subscribed. You are a treasure.

Boiling oil is dangerous, but if you invest in a electric deep fat fryer then the temperature is regulated, if you do as John says there is virtually no danger. When cooking anything always be in the kitchen with it and you should be fine.
