Fish and Chips followed by Rice Pudding

Fish and chips is a hot battered fish dish, which originated in England. Deep-fried fish was first introduced into Britain during the 16th century by Jewish refugees from Portugal and Spain. The first fish and chip shop was opened in London by Joseph Malin in 1860.
It is usually made with Atlantic cod or haddock, and is a common take-away food, but I decided to adapt the typical fish and chips recipe. I used breadcrumbs to coat the fish and oven bake the chips instead of deep fat frying them.
The dinner was pretty easy. When I told my brothers I was making fish and chips, they weren't exactly excited, but in fact everyone thought the meal was delicious.
I thought everyone might want a quick update on how my personal project is going. I only have 5 recipes left to do and I just can't wait for the 3,500 word essay I have to work on once I have finished the project aspect.

Rice pudding is often called a "Comfort Nursery Food". I decided that rather than use a large dish for the pudding, I would use individual ramekins. The consistency of the finished pudding was quite thick, and I finished the dish by sprinkling the tops with brown sugar and putting them under the grill to give them a crème brûlée crust. The portions were perhaps too generous and very filling, so some of the family had trouble finishing their pudding. However, overall the dish was voted a popular success.
