Few classics come as close to authentic New Zealand cuisine as our beloved fish and chips.
An iconic summertime or Friday-night staple, fish and chips are about as ‘Kiwiana’ as rugby or Tip Top or jandals. In fact, you’d be hard-pressed to find a New Zealander for whom this dish doesn’t serve up some serious childhood nostalgia.
And while we do like to indulge in a newspaper-wrapped classic from time to time, our tastebuds have refined somewhat since childhood, and now, we seek a version of fish and chips that feels more elevated.
