My nan used to put custard powder in her batter when I was a child. She made us fish and chips every Saturday.RIP Nanny fish.

@JohnDoe-ji8dq 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, Cornflour is essentially custard powder & vanilla. Use a quarter in weight of cornflour (or Rice flour) & guarantee crispy !.

Wow those fish and chips looked gorgeous Dazzla.Can Remember a Mother Hubbards in the 70s in Bradford which was I'm pretty sure started as a restaurant and not a takeaway.Sure it was the first one.Now like you say lots of Mother Hubbards fish and chip shops all over the country . Top video as always stay safe.

Apparently the actors who played Jack and Vera Duckworth on Corrie invested in, and promoted, this company soon after it started up. Don't know how successful it was at the outset, but it's still going strong. Great value for London.

The original was (and is) in Bradford. I didn't think they would be charging Northern prices in that there London. Most chippies in Bradford use beef tallow to fry but I think these guys use veg oil.

@patrickanthonybutler3969 8 месяцев назад

It must be 10, it's the batter that is being used by many top chefs, question is what are they putting in it ?Sheila & Patrick.

@TickityBoo70 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing! I prefer my fish n’ chips deep fried in beef dripping and the fish to be coated in beer batter. The last time I went to a Mother Hubbards, my fish and chips (like yours) looked amazing. Unfortunately they were fried in vegetable oil and tasted ok ish. On the-other hand, Murgatroyds (Yeadon - Leeds) do AMAZING fish n’ chips! If you ever find yourself up in West Yorkshire I highly recommend that you give them a visit.

Black rucksack. You could carry a real knife and fork, bit of kitchen roll in a sandwich bag, and eat properly. It's how I do it. Even on a motorbike. I'm vegetarian, but that batter looked bloody perfect. The bits that fell off during cooking used to, and probably still called 'scrumps' in Bristol. You could ask for them to be added to chips.
