@FindlayMacD we are experimenting with a number of fish for our soon to be opened Fish'N Chip Shop in Makati City, along Osmena Highway - great for people going home evenings and stuck in traffic. We found a few frozen varieties but nothing that survives the freezing process, except the white flesh of dorado (mahi mahi) and something that goes by the local name of labahita. Both are a whole lot better than cream dory (pangasius) . . . but we are still experimenting. Before the end of this month we will have it worked out.
@ FinlayMac posted:I know how to make the beer batter etc but can anyone suggest the best fillet fish available here in the Philippines to make UK style fish -n- chips. I know you can buy Atlantic cod fillets here in S&R but besides being very expensive, they are only small pieces and by the time you have battered and fried them there isn't much much left to enjoy, has anyone got any suggestions of any kind of fish that would fit the bill, I love fish n chips.
@Cherryann01 Man, of course yes!
@Filamretire malt vinegar of course, available, but expensive in small bottles, trying to find a source for a gallon or two . . .
Malt vinegar anyone?- @Filamretire
@FindlayMacD Try Bangus
@gsturdee I agree and I have given up eating fish n' chips in the Philippines.
@gsturdee oh yes, onion gravy with pie and peas
