Whats crazy about professional cooking to me is the logistics of having everything already prepared to do this as an order is made. Not only are you making this dish within a few minutes but managing 10 other things at the same time.
Cooking in particular BIR Indian but also some traditional has taught me tons in this area as it is all about layering up the flavours and ingredients. When a recipe calls for tomato purée, you are not just adding a tin. You are adding tomato purée that you have cooked with peppers, chillies, garlic, coriander etc etc. Layers upon layers.
It is great watching an expert...it would be my nightmare of a job..🙈..I have a chef friend..he says it is a science with what goes with what for perfection 🎉
This is an incredible attention to detail, there will be few customers realise what went into making their food. Also generous of you to share your tricks, you will be remembered (and thanked) and the crabby secretive types soon forgotten.

I like to think I'm clever about my recipes, my process, my ingredient choices, optimizing the steps, but i dont hold a candle to you guys. Every time I watch one of your videos, I go "OF COURSE, THATS SO SMART" about every 30 seconds. You guys are on another level. Love how your videos are so upfront about all of it, taking us through the whole process. No pretentiousness, no secrecy, and it speaks volumes that you're making it look easy. You guys are at the top of my bucket list.
How generous of you share your recipe and all your experience this is priceless( I will add that frying the fish one after the other allows keeping the oil temperature steady. Same goes when your you have mincedbeef or. Chicken, instead of putting a big mass that will plunge your temperature, styr fry and remove as your fry j’y our meat and place it on the side, start over( you gain time, organisation an heat, efficiency!
Its great watching a true expert so passionate about his job...I am 66 and have perfected " grannies home made chips " ..i get and 11/10 ..altho im old dchool and use beef dripping..yummy🎉 that plate looked absolutely amazing...Ty for sharing 🎉
Looks unreal, Chef. So much attention to detail IE the drizzle of extra batter over the fish as it fries and a thinner layer of batter over the skin side so the skin has a chance to crisp up a bit 🔥🔥🔥
This looks fantastic! What strikes me about all your videos is the thoughtfulness behind everything. Its obvious that you all care SO much about what you're doing.
Absolutely loves the tutorials and amazing recipes to take food to the next level. Great demonstrations keep it up love this team. I have to run a cafe on my own so it’s what I miss is the team work that use guys show
I think you can do it bro. I knew a crazy Jamaican pot washer who got a chance at The Frog by Adam Handling. Get a visa, scrub the pots at Fallow and if youve got the character they'll teach you the rest.
Love seeing all the little chefy stuff you do outside of the main recipe (like the towel roll to keep the bowl in place for stirring). Reminds me of when I staged for one of Danny Meyers guys. So cool
Looks amazing, well done - it does look like it's going to fall off that little board when you serve it or try to eat it lol - love the lil crispy bits
Nice to see a Chippy using Loins of perhaps Cod or Haddock, many fish and chip shops in the UK use Block which is the Tails of the fish. Going into an expensive restaurant I expect Loin, not the tail. Thanks, it was a good video!
I've always known the crispy batter (& chip) bits to be called scrumps and I haven't had them for years. I remember some chip shops use to sell a portion of scrumps for 50p back in the 90s in South Wales.
My god man what a lot of labor for what looks like a simple dish. I'll never be able to do that wo trying to cut corners. You're a better man Gunga Din. Looks fab. Congrats
Wow! I'm Drooling, I ran a 'New York Fries' shop we used only Russet Burbank spuds in a three stage cooking method. We washed and cut the spuds into big pails ice on the bottom filling with cold water as we cut, iced the top, three to four pails cut first thing in the morning. Light up the fryer, three kettles filled with premium oil, first kettle set at 325 f, second kettle at 360 f third kettle at 375 f, leaving at least 20 minutes between stages. spuds stacked in their fry baskets over their respective kettles until needed. First stage to give the spuds a light yellowish tint, second stage to give the edges a deeper yellow, third stage to brown the spuds off and crisp them up, shake them out into the dump station, salt them and scoop them into the cups. So good! P.S. Always and often shake the spuds in the fry baskets in every stage to keep them from sticking together.
Unreal videos. Perfect for the weekend-warrior home cooks like myself. Not so fussed about the recipes per se but understanding the little techniques here and there (sprinkling batter on the cod for texture, turmeric in the batter etc) is the best cooking vids can get. Too many channels out there just tell you a recipe in video format; this one tells you why. Plus, it's a great insight into how to cook like a pro chef without dealing with that prick Gordon Ramsey or some loud American guy in his home kitchen
In belgium we use bintje or a pureepotato for fries. Peeled , sliced, washed, dried. Than blanched in 140°c hot oil, cooled and fried in 180°c hot vegetableoil or oxfat

Man, this looked so mouth-watering good I ran out and just got back from our local pub-style bar and grill that makes authentic fish and chips that always look just like what I'm seeing in this vid. So I'm crunchin' and munchin' because of this vid. One final word of compliment.... Wow! Wow Wow Wow!!!
They're good but a real faff to clean. The oil goes all sticky and needs some effort to get it off. Having said that, on the upside you will be able to make chips EXACTLY how you like them!
I also add some vinigar essence to the water when I boil the potatoes. Already adds some acidity flavour but mostly helps with the hydrolysis which gives more crunch later.
@@txxmiles2974 What stopped you in the beginning, I'm thinking of entering the profession but the pay and lack of work/life balance is making it less and less viable.
If you value you your social life, catering is not the career. Remember this restaurant is London, the whole structure is entirely different to any other city in the UK.
Stunning. I love the use of turmeric for a bit of colour on the batter. I've seen chefs use vodka in their batter, what's your opinion on that? I'm not too sure what that would add to the final dish
Nice looking but a couple of changes I would make (22 years in the fish and chip industry and owned my own restaurant doing just that) Do not use pollock! And always remove the skin as it adds nothing. With the batter, rest it chilled for 2 hours and you’ll get a lighter, crisper batter and won’t need the turmeric. But for a more ‘fine dining’ style dish and chips, this is right up there! Too many places make overly thick batter and you don’t get those crispy peaks
Can I do the first frying for preparation a day ahead, then cooling overnight and then finish them with the second frying just before serving the next day?
Made the fish today, the cure is a real gamechanger. The citrus flavors on the fish are amazing 😍
Whats crazy about professional cooking to me is the logistics of having everything already prepared to do this as an order is made. Not only are you making this dish within a few minutes but managing 10 other things at the same time.

Love the idea of curing the fish first to season and firm it up. Definitely gotta try this sometime.

Perfection is a lot of little things done well. Great video. So many great tips
Sweet jesus!! What a chef 👨🍳 brilliant mate 👌 👏 food looks incredible 👌 🎉
Best Recipe i have found so far, and it looks fantastic.
Seen many times this variation of Heston Blumethals perfect chip methodology. This is more streamlined, basically very batch oriented . Good stuff.
Heston despite his fame is very under appreciated for his nerd levels of gastronomic expertise.

@@ibrahimhossain2776😂 but you're giving up your dream after eleven years, NO dad I'm giving up YOUR dream.
You probably have more skills and sense of flavour than 99% of people that graduate the most prestigious culinary schools.
Scraping the batter off the skin side before dropping in the oil is a class touch..great recipe
Love seeing all the little chefy stuff you do outside of the main recipe (like the towel roll to keep the bowl in place for stirring). Reminds me of when I staged for one of Danny Meyers guys. So cool
I love seeing all the cuttings and leftovers get set aside for other stuff!
Every restaurant does that.
such as? - sticking them back onto those micro thin fillets with even more batter!!
Looks amazing, well done - it does look like it's going to fall off that little board when you serve it or try to eat it lol - love the lil crispy bits
That's what I thought. Must be a nervous delivery for waiter 😂

It's a waste and makes for a mess. Just use a pot.

looks amazing on camera and impossible to take a single bite without half of it falling off the board it's served on
Yeah, I find plates work pretty well for this kind of thing.
@@nickmiller76 A larger board would solve that. The problem with boards is that they can't be washed properly. Plates ftw.

Nice, will definitely go soon, but what's wrong with actual plates?
