  1. SWEET POTATO WEDGES

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the sweet potato wedges on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.

  2. TARTAR SAUCE

    In a small bowl, combine the mayo, ½ the chopped dill, the diced gherkin, a splash of water, and seasoning. Set aside.

  3. BEER-BATTERED BASA

    In a bowl, combine ¾ of the flour, seasoning, and the rub. Gradually mix in 50ml of the beer (you won’t be needing the rest of the beer), until a smooth batter. Add an extra splash of beer if the batter looks too thick. In a separate shallow bowl, place the remaining flour (seasoned lightly). Place a pot over a medium-high heat. Fill with enough oil to deep-fry the basa. Pat the basa dry with paper towel. When the oil is hot, lightly coat the basa in the flour and then dip the basa into the beer batter. Using a pair of tongs, carefully lower each piece into the hot oil. Deep-fry for 3-5 minutes until the batter is golden and crispy. On completion, remove and drain on paper towel. Season to taste.

  4. TOASTED BUNS

    Butter the cut-side of the halved roll or drizzle with oil. Place a pan over a medium heat. When hot, place the roll, cut-side down, in the pan and toast for 1-2 minutes until browned.

  5. DELISH FISH DINNER!

    Lay down the bottom half of the roll. Smear on ½ the creamy tartar sauce. Top with the rinsed salad leaves, the sliced tomato and the crispy fried basa. Sprinkle over the remaining dill. Side with the roasted sweet potato wedges and the remaining tartar sauce for dunking. Well done, Chef!
