For the beer batter

  • Place all the dry ingredients in a bowl and mix well.  With a whisk add the beer until you have formed a smooth batter. 
    You might have to play with the consistency a little bit.  You want the batter looking like a thick crepe batter, a little thinner than a pancake batter. 

For the potatoes

  • Boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender all the way through. Strain out and place on a cutting board. Using a butchers mallet or the bottom of a pan, lightly smash the potatoes.
    Then place 4 cups of oil in pot or deep fryer and heat to 325 degrees. Place a few potatoes in the fryer at a time not to over crowd the fryer. Fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
    Strain out on to a paper towel and season with salt. Continue the same process with the remaining potatoes.

To finish

  • Take the cod and dip each piece into the batter and then into the fryer. Only add a few pieces at a time not to over crowd the fryer. Cook for 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
    Strain out on to a paper towel and season with salt. Continue the same process with the remaining pieces of fish. Add a few spoonfuls of gribiche sauce to the plate. Add some potatoes, and fish. Garnish with nasturtiums, serve and enjoy!
