Spicy Fish & Chips Recipe - Fish & Chips Recipe without Beer

This is one recipe which i wanted to try for quite a long time. Somehow it didn't happen, but few days back i got a chance to get my hands on some boneless fish pieces and guess what immediately i got into action and here i deliver you the recipe. I used frozen french fries in this because i had a packet of them lying, but you can make your own french fries, see this recipe or you can simply serve it with potato chips. I served with with some spicy mayo, but you can easily whip this gherkin mayo instead.

Actually this is pretty easy recipe to try, when i searched on google, i found every recipe uses beer for their fish and chips. Some recipe calls for milk. But i decided to use soda water which made the batter really light and crunchy.

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
