don't think Rio Grande catfish or rainbow trout would do the trick

i think catfish would work well. i would rather go fresh meaty catfish than limp frozen cod

my top tip- a little boullion powder in the batter mix

haddock or whiting up here but cod is just as nice, they aren't really all that different. I prefer breaded myself. If making it myself, chucking some fennel seeds in the oil is nice ๐Ÿ™‚

No. I meant mushy peas.
To drink? Well that would be tea or dandelion & burdock.

My Grandad used to make the best chips i've ever had. He had this old chip pan with lard/dripping. I don't know how old the dripping was and how often he changed it but he swore blind that older dripping made better chips. The chips were never greasy and always nice and fluffy inside.

Give that man a drink.

When I was a little 'un, our task was to go to the chip shop. If we did we could watch Match of the Day. We could also choose the drink. And of course it was always Dandelion and Birdmuck.

I thought it was of jewish origin?

Did you listen to the same radio 4 thing as I did? Some guy saying f and c was the perfect London refugee ethnic mashup dish because it's Huguenot chips and Sephardic Jewish fried fish? (TBH frying fish isn't rocket surgery so I doubt anyone's got an exclusive claim on it).

Double fry the chips

Heresy, Triple cooked is the way to chip perfection.
