I’m not sure why but one of my best memories from living in England for all those years was of having fish and chips on a cold, pebbly Brighton beach with my mother who was visiting us from sunny SA. We sat in the freezing wind, watching a bleak and grey-dull sea, feeding the seagulls the last of our hot, salty, vinegary, plumply battered fish and chips from Bankers – the best chippy on the South Coast (in my humble opinion). It seems another world now that we are back on home shores, but this recipe for me is a way to relive that little moment of everyday happiness – so simple and so perfect. Another great one from Ilse for The Food Fox’s weekly recipe column on The Pretty Blog.
