Instructions

1. Prepare the Fries

  1. Peel and cut potatoes into thin fries.

  2. Soak them in cold water for 20–30 minutes (this removes starch and makes them crispier).

  3. Dry them well with a towel.

  4. Heat oil to 175–180°C and fry until golden and crispy (about 5–7 minutes).

  5. Remove and sprinkle salt and paprika.


2. Season the Fish

  1. Pat fish fillets dry.

  2. Mix olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, salt, pepper, paprika, and herbs.

  3. Rub the mixture evenly over the fish.

  4. Let it marinate for 10–15 minutes.


3. Grill the Fish

  • Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill on medium heat.

  • Cook fish for 3–4 minutes per side until flaky and cooked through.


4. Serve

Plate the grilled fish with crispy fries, lemon wedges, and your favorite sauce.
