What's Great About It:

This delicious recipe is sure to impress, despite being quick to make and only having a few ingredients! You can halve the cooking time by using an air fryer – simply cook the chips for 5-7 minutes, and then add the fish and cook for a further 5-7 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish.
