Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large russet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt (to taste)
- ½ teaspoon coarse black pepper (or to taste)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 tablespoon old bay seasoning
- 6 ounces stout beer (cold, or more as needed)
- 6 fillets white fish (cod, haddock, tilapia)
- ½ cup cornstarch (for dredging)
- vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut them into ½ inch sticks.
- Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of cold water for at least 20 minutes to remove excess starch.

- Cook in the air fryer at 370°F (188°C) for 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.
Notes
Ensure the potatoes are completely dry before tossing in oil for maximum crispiness.
For extra flavor, you can add your favorite seasoning to the fish batter.
