BRING THE BRITISH CHIPPY HOME

Fancy making proper chippy favourites at home?

​

The Chippy Tour Chippy Recipes brings together more than 70 recipes inspired by the incredible variety of food found in fish and chip shops across Britain.

 

From crisp, golden battered fish, proper chips, and chippy curry sauce to steak and kidney pudding, orange chips, Wigan kebabs, battered black pudding, Yorkshire fish cakes, haggis, Spam, and battered desserts, this is far more than a fish and chips recipe book.

 

It celebrates the regional favourites, unusual creations and traditional chippy foods that make Britain's fish and chip shops so wonderfully different.

Written in a straightforward, easy-to-follow style for home cooks, the book includes fish and seafood, batters, chips, savouries, sauces, gravies, meat-free dishes, and sweet treats.

INSPIRED BY THE CHIPPY, MADE FOR THE HOME

The recipes are my own interpretations of familiar chip shop dishes and regional favourites, adapted for home cooking. Fish and chip shops use specialist equipment, carefully maintained frying mediums and years of experience, so nothing replaces the real thing.

​

Cook the classics. Discover the unusual. Try something completely new. And when you get the chance, keep supporting the brilliant fish and chip shops that inspired it all.
