Boil a large pan of water, then add the chipped potatoes and boil for 2-3 mins until the outsides are just tender but not soft.
Gently toss together until all the potatoes are evenly coated and the flour is no longer dusty. Roast for 30 mins, turning occasionally, until the chips are golden and crisp. To cook the fish, heat the 1 litre oil in a deep saucepan until a drop of batter sizzles and crisps up straight away. Pat the fish dry with kitchen paper, then toss it in the reserved turmeric flour mix.
Shake off any excess, then dip into the batter. RECIPE TIPSMORE FAB FISH RECIPES Visit our new fish recipe collection for more seafood inspiration.
