Whats crazy about professional cooking to me is the logistics of having everything already prepared to do this as an order is made. Not only are you making this dish within a few minutes but managing 10 other things at the same time.

Cooking in particular BIR Indian but also some traditional has taught me tons in this area as it is all about layering up the flavours and ingredients. When a recipe calls for tomato purée, you are not just adding a tin. You are adding tomato purée that you have cooked with peppers, chillies, garlic, coriander etc etc. Layers upon layers.

Love the idea of curing the fish first to season and firm it up. Definitely gotta try this sometime.

This looks fantastic! What strikes me about all your videos is the thoughtfulness behind everything. Its obvious that you all care SO much about what you're doing.

Looks, and I'm sure tastes amazing. The attention to detail is 1st class! Thanks for sharing!

Made the fish today, the cure is a real gamechanger. The citrus flavors on the fish are amazing 😍

Looks unreal, Chef. So much attention to detail IE the drizzle of extra batter over the fish as it fries and a thinner layer of batter over the skin side so the skin has a chance to crisp up a bit 🔥🔥🔥

prime lads giving away tricks of the trade to prove they know how to do it right and make it the best

Absolutely loves the tutorials and amazing recipes to take food to the next level. Great demonstrations keep it up love this team. I have to run a cafe on my own so it’s what I miss is the team work that use guys show

Scraping the batter off the skin side before dropping in the oil is a class touch..great recipe

Wow! I'm Drooling, I ran a 'New York Fries' shop we used only Russet Burbank spuds in a three stage cooking method. We washed and cut the spuds into big pails ice on the bottom filling with cold water as we cut, iced the top, three to four pails cut first thing in the morning. Light up the fryer, three kettles filled with premium oil, first kettle set at 325 f, second kettle at 360 f third kettle at 375 f, leaving at least 20 minutes between stages. spuds stacked in their fry baskets over their respective kettles until needed. First stage to give the spuds a light yellowish tint, second stage to give the edges a deeper yellow, third stage to brown the spuds off and crisp them up, shake them out into the dump station, salt them and scoop them into the cups. So good! P.S. Always and often shake the spuds in the fry baskets in every stage to keep them from sticking together.

Its great watching a true expert so passionate about his job...I am 66 and have perfected " grannies home made chips " ..i get and 11/10 ..altho im old dchool and use beef dripping..yummy🎉 that plate looked absolutely amazing...Ty for sharing 🎉

Nice looking but a couple of changes I would make (22 years in the fish and chip industry and owned my own restaurant doing just that) Do not use pollock! And always remove the skin as it adds nothing. With the batter, rest it chilled for 2 hours and you’ll get a lighter, crisper batter and won’t need the turmeric. But for a more ‘fine dining’ style dish and chips, this is right up there! Too many places make overly thick batter and you don’t get those crispy peaks

Love seeing all the little chefy stuff you do outside of the main recipe (like the towel roll to keep the bowl in place for stirring). Reminds me of when I staged for one of Danny Meyers guys. So cool

How generous of you share your recipe and all your experience this is priceless( I will add that frying the fish one after the other allows keeping the oil temperature steady. Same goes when your you have mincedbeef or. Chicken, instead of putting a big mass that will plunge your temperature, styr fry and remove as your fry j’y our meat and place it on the side, start over( you gain time, organisation an heat, efficiency!

Heston despite his fame is very under appreciated for his nerd levels of gastronomic expertise.

I also add some vinigar essence to the water when I boil the potatoes. Already adds some acidity flavour but mostly helps with the hydrolysis which gives more crunch later.

Nice to see a Chippy using Loins of perhaps Cod or Haddock, many fish and chip shops in the UK use Block which is the Tails of the fish. Going into an expensive restaurant I expect Loin, not the tail. Thanks, it was a good video!

Man, this looked so mouth-watering good I ran out and just got back from our local pub-style bar and grill that makes authentic fish and chips that always look just like what I'm seeing in this vid. So I'm crunchin' and munchin' because of this vid. One final word of compliment.... Wow! Wow Wow Wow!!!

Awesome recipe and really well explained :)

I enjoy your instructional uploads. I always pick up a tip or two but I'm no chef.

Absolutely top drawer. Cannot wait to get down and try fallow soon!

I keep sending these to my wife. Wish me luck.

Unreal videos. Perfect for the weekend-warrior home cooks like myself. Not so fussed about the recipes per se but understanding the little techniques here and there (sprinkling batter on the cod for texture, turmeric in the batter etc) is the best cooking vids can get. Too many channels out there just tell you a recipe in video format; this one tells you why. Plus, it's a great insight into how to cook like a pro chef without dealing with that prick Gordon Ramsey or some loud American guy in his home kitchen

My god man what a lot of labor for what looks like a simple dish. I'll never be able to do that wo trying to cut corners. You're a better man Gunga Din. Looks fab. Congrats

Take this with a pinch of salt (and a dash of vinegar!), since I don't work at Fallow. Generally speaking though, when making chips forms scratch on a larger scale than at home, you'd do the boiling and the first fry in large batches, and then you'd do the second fry portion by portion, to order.

You want them thick and uniform so that there is consistently enough space on the chip to get crumbled. So there should be enough interior to be fluffy potato in each chip. Hope that makes sense. One mistake you might make (i sure did) was cut the chips to my typical desired thinness. There wasn’t enough room internally and they got destroyed into mush and crisp.

@beeble2003

Doesn't matter how long they are. Heat spreads into the food from the surfaces, so the time it takes the centre of the food to heat up depends on how far it is from the closest surface. For most of the chip, the ends aren't the closest surface, so it doesn't matter how far away hey are. But if you have fat chips and thin chips, the thin ones will be over-done while the fat ones are still raw in the middle.

Unreal looking food. Would love to see you make the Sunday roast gravy that you mentioned

Can someone that knows answer this question. I saw him put the chips directly into a fridge when hot. Now I was always told never to put hot things into a fridge especially meat. Is this because it raises the temp of the fridge and contaminates everything else in the fridge or is it because it contaminates the meat by cooling too quickly?

@MackerelCat

9 ай бұрын

It was probably a blast chiller, a special cooling cabinet for professional kitchens. And yeah we’re told to avoid putting hot things in fridges because it can raise overall temp momentarily increasing the likelihood of spoiling other foods, but in a well functioning and clean fridge with regular food rotation it isn’t that problematic.

Mmmm my favorite fish & chips yum

I've never heard of trisol that went into the batter but ill give it a go
