1 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable seasoning
batter (recipe follows)
chips (French fries), fresh or frozen, cooked

Cut fish into fingers about 2 ounces each and place in a glass or
stainless steel pan. Mix lemon juice with Worcestershire sauce,
salt, pepper, and vegetable seasoning. Pour over fish and marinate
in refrigerator for 1 hour, turning every so often to coat fish.
Prepare batter.
Remove fish from marinade, drain, dip in batter and fry in hot oil
for about 5 minutes, turning to brown both sides, if necessary.
Remove from oil and drain on papertowels.
Serve with chips and malt vinegar.
