Fish and chips with homemade coleslaw
Ingredients
(serves 4)
- Femeg fish box
- 500–600 g potatoes
- pointed cabbage (white cabbage can also be used as an alternative)
- 5–6 carrots
- 1 onion
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tsp mustard
- 1 tbsp sour cream
- 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- salt, sugar, pepper
Preparation
Peel the potatoes and cut them into strips of even thickness. Then soak the sliced potatoes in cold water for 15 to 30 minutes. This removes the excess starch, preventing the chips from sticking together and burning.
Then drain the chips thoroughly and pat them dry with kitchen paper. The drier they are before cooking, the crispier they’ll be.
Place the chips in a bowl and toss them with 0.5–1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. You can add your favourite seasonings (such as salt, paprika or garlic).
Preheat the hot-air fryer to 180 °C. Cook the chips for about 15–25 minutes, depending on their thickness. Shake the basket two or three times during cooking to ensure the chips cook evenly on all sides.
Finely chop the cabbage and grate the carrots and the peeled onion using a coarse grater. To soften the vegetables: place them in a bowl, add a teaspoon each of salt and sugar, then knead well with your hands. Leave to stand for about 15–20 minutes so that the cabbage softens and releases excess water, which you should then drain off.
In a separate bowl, mix all the ingredients for the dressing thoroughly. Then toss the vegetables with the prepared dressing. Leave the salad to marinate in the fridge for at least two to four hours (preferably overnight) to allow the flavours to develop.
