SpaThe new Friday tradition at The Meritage Resort is Fish 'n Chips. Chef Laurent is using seasonal cold water fish and Napa's own Napa Smith Brewery Beer to create the perfect batter. Every Friday morning, Laurent brings the freshest fish available from Kanaola Seafood at Oxbow Market, depending on the season, to make the perfect Fish 'n Chips.
Ingredients:
Heat Oil to 325 degrees.
Mix beer and eggs together and add flour and salt just until combined. Then dip 3 to 4 ounce pieces of fish into the batter and into the hot oil until golden brown. Do not cook too many at a time so the oil does not drop in temperature. You may even want to dust the fish with flour to get the batter to stick well to your fish.
Serve with your favorite chips or as we serve it in Siena, with slaw, a pickle and Siena Chips - yes, all house made - even the pickles!
- 1 - 16oz Bottle of Napa Smith Brewery Wheat Beer
- 2 Eggs
- 2 Cups of unbleached whole-wheat flour
- 1 tsp salt
- Your favorite meaty fish like Black Cod or Halibut
