I spent an afternoon making Fish and Chips from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting mature Cheddar right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks. The subtly sweet with caramelised elements result was rewarding once I got it right.

pub food culture has undergone a renaissance in the gastropub era. I served it with a glass of claret with Sunday roast as the recipe suggested and the pairing made sense. It took longer than I expected but the outcome was genuinely satisfying. Making Fish and Chips yourself gives you a new appreciation for what goes into it at a restaurant.
