Fish and Chips
Beer-battered cod or haddock deep-fried until golden, served with thick-cut chips, mushy peas, and malt vinegar.
Why It Works
The beer batter's CO2 creates an extra-light, crispy coating. Double-frying the chips (blanch then fry hot) gives a fluffy interior and shatteringly crisp exterior.
