Best Fried Fish Sandwich

Crispy french fries are a traditional side dish for fried fish sandwiches. Upgrade to beet and sweet potato fries for more color or fry up leek potato pancakes for more flavor. Keep things light with a side salad or a cup of carrot ginger soup. Pickled vegetables make tasty fried fish sandwich toppings, but they’re also delicious on the side. If you’re not drinking your favorite beer with this fried fish sandwich recipe, pour a cold pint of lemony pineapple iced tea.
