IF the sound of oil sizzling away in deep-fat fryers usually makes you do a U-turn out of the chip shop, you might enjoy the following.
The team at Challis Road Fish and Chips say cottonseed oil, unlike cholesterol-loaded animal fats, is the healthiest option when it comes to deep frying.
Cottonseed oil contains saturated fatty acids, which make it stable without the need for additional processing or the formation of trans-fatty acids, making it a much healthier option than polyunsaturated oils.
This means you can enjoy your fisherman’s basket without the sneaking suspicion you might be adding to your love handles in just the one sitting.
Also on the menu at this cheerily decked out corner store-style fish and chippery pan-fried snapper for those seeking gluten- |free options or something a bit more gourmet.
Choose from chilli and garlic, smoked paprika and basil or rosemary varieties.
There’s also all the usual seafood favourites on offer along with a few unexpected treats – try the dutch beef croquet or the lasagne topper for something different.
