How To Make Chip Shop Battered Sausage (No Beer) Proper fried fish is a true British art form – and needs little in the way of fancy embellishments. Beer and raising agents, for flavour and volume, and good hot fat are all you need for pure, unadulterated happiness. (Oh, and a piece of fresh fish, of course. But that's almost by the by.)

While the chips are frying, transfer the fish from the kitchen paper to a baking tray. Place in the oven for a few minutes to finish cooking – this way they will stay crisp while you finish off the chips. If you are cooking oven chips they take around 20 minutes in the oven, you should put your oil on to heat up 3-4 minutes into their cooking.

Kielbasa Sausage: You can also make a battered sausage with kielbasa sausages. They are a Polish sausage that is traditionally u-shaped and smoked. I highly recommend to let the food cool down for at least 10 minutes (longer if you have the time) before frying them for the second time. Why?
