Tips

Substitute wild-caught cod with pollock or haddock.
Cut fish into chicken finger-like shapes.
Adjust batter consistency with water or flour.
Ensure oil is hot enough by testing with a drop of batter.
Don't overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
Pan-frying helps the batter cling to the fish better than deep-frying.
Add pickle juice to the tartar sauce
