Fish Batter Recipe

Delicious fish and chips starts by using a great batter. This is our favorite batter for making some seriously delicious deep fried cod or hake.

Ingredients:

1 cup cake flour
4 tsp paprika
1 tsp tumeric
2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
½ cup milk
½ cup water
1L B-well canola oil for frying

Method:

1. Mix everything together and add the liquid slowly to insure the batter is not too runny. Reduce liquid quantity if needed.

2. Dip the fish in the batter and place the fish in high heat B-well canola oil.

3. Leave the fish until golden brown on both sides, flip around to insure both sides become equally crisp. Remove from oil to strain.

Voila! Squeeze a bit of lemon juice over the fish and then enjoy it with your favorite condiment. We served the fish and chips with a home made garlic and parsley mayo dip. Which simply consisted of 1/2 a cup B-well original tangy mayonnaise, 1/3 a cup of cream, 1 clove finely chopped garlic, a handful of finely chopped parsley and the juice of half a lemon.

Kerrie afval resep

(Bedien 6-8)

1 volledige skaapafval (skaapkop, pens en pootjies), skoongemaak
1 k aartappelblokkies
1 k asyn
1 e sout
1 t swartpeperkorrels

Vir afronding
12 klein aartappeltjies, ongeskil
½ k appelkooskonfyt

Meng die kerriemengsel
2 e gerasperde vars gemmer
5 kardemomsade, liggies gestamp
1 t steranys
4 stukke kassia
½ t rissiepoeier
1 t fyn komyn
2 t borrie
4 lourierblare

Sit die harsings binne-in die blokkiespens en bind stewig vas met kombuistou. Sny die res van die pens in klein blokkies. As jou afval supermarkskoon is, gooi ‘n ketel kookwater oor en laat staan ‘n paar minute. As die pens bietjie wild ruik, kan jy dit so 20 minute lank kook. Gooi die water af.

Sit die harsings binne-in die blokkiespens in die harsingsholte van die kopbeen sodat dit nie breek en wegkook nie.

Sit die afval en aartappelblokkies in ‘n kastrol. Bedek met kookwater, gooi asyn, sout en peper by en prut 2 ure of sit in ‘n voorafverhitte oond by 180°C. Die afval moet sag wees, maar die murg moet nog nie uit die bene gekook wees nie.

As die afval sag is, voeg die klein aartappeltjies by met die appelkooskonfyt. Meng al die bestanddele vir die kerriemengsel en roer dit ook by. Prut nog ‘n halfuur tot die klein aartappeltjies sag is. 

Proe nou die afval, indien dit te suur is, voeg nog appelkooskonfyt by. Te soet, voeg asyn of suurlemoensap by. Nie sterk genoeg nie, voeg nog rissie by, maar met ‘n ligte hand!

Chicken chickpea curry

• 2 onions
• 4 cloves of garlic
• 1 thumb-sized piece of ginger
• 2 yellow peppers
• 1 cube chicken stock
• 1-2 fresh red chillies
• ½ a bunch of fresh coriander
• 1 teaspoon runny honey
• 1 level teaspoon ground tumeric
• 2 teaspoons curry powder
• 8 higher-welfare chicken drumsticks
• olive oil
• 1 x 400 g tin of chickpeas
• 1 teaspoon tomato purée
• 320 g basmati rice
• 1 lemon

• Optional:

• fat-free natural yoghurt, to serve

Method

'Pukka' is an Indian word for the real deal or authenticity, hence the name of this dish. It's not because I'm a cocky Essex boy, nor, as some not-so-nice journalists once said, because of my annoying 'estuary accent' (whatever that means). Anyway, this curry is delicious – the meat falls off the bone, it's great value and it looks phenomenal.

Peel the onions, garlic and ginger and deseed the peppers. Put 1 onion, 1 pepper, the garlic and ginger into a food processor. Crumble in the stock cube and add the chilli (deseed it first, if you prefer a milder curry), the coriander stalks, honey and spices, then blitz to a paste.

Place a large casserole pan on a medium-high heat and fry the chicken drumsticks (pull the skin off first, if you prefer) with a splash of oil for 10 minutes, or until golden, turning occasionally with tongs. Remove the chicken to a plate, leaving the pan on the heat. Roughly chop the remaining onion and pepper and add to the pan to cook for a few minutes, then tip in the paste and let it cook down for around 5 minutes. Pour in 500ml of boiling water. Drain the chickpeas and add along with the tomato purée and a pinch of salt and pepper, then stir well. Return the chicken to the pan, pop the lid on, reduce the heat and simmer gently for around 45 minutes, or until the sauce darkens and thickens.

With 15 minutes to go, put 1 mug (320g) of rice and 2 mugs of boiling water into a pan with a pinch of salt and simmer with the lid on for 12 minutes, or until all the liquid has been absorbed. Serve the curry in the middle of the table with a few dollops of yoghurt (if using) and a scattering of coriander leaves, with lemon wedges for squeezing over and the fluffy rice on the side.

Directions

1. Combine 2 3/4 cups flour and 1 teaspoon kosher salt in a large bowl. Cut lard into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse bread crumbs. Add ice water a tablespoon at a time, tossing to mix. Gather the dough into a ball, divide it in half, and wrap each piece in plastic wrap. Refrigerate the dough while you prepare the filling.
2. Mix together 2 1/2 tablespoons flour, 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, paprika, pepper, ginger, and allspice in a bowl. Dredge the steak pieces in the seasoned flour and set aside.
3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in beef cubes and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent and the beef is browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Pour in beef broth and red wine and simmer until sauce thickens, about 20 minutes.
4. Roll out one pastry crust on a lightly floured surface to fit a 10-inch pie plate. Place the crust in the pie plate, cover it loosely with plastic, and refrigerate. Roll out the top crust for the pie and set it aside.
5. Stir the potatoes and carrots into the beef mixture and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and allow it to cool slightly.
6. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
7. Transfer the beef mixture to the pastry-lined pie plate. Sprinkle with an additional 1/2 teaspoon of thyme, if desired; cover the pie with the top crust and crimp edges to seal. Cut vents in the crust or prick with a fork to allow steam to escape.
8. Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly, about 30 minutes.
