Fish and chips are batter fried fish and potatoes. Once traditionally served in newspaper with a side of mushy peas, they have now become a gourmet item in some areas. It is a popular food in most Commonwealth countries. Both France and the United Kingdom claim the invention of fish and chips.
History

Fried fish was a common dish in England as early as the 1830s; "fried fish warehouses" are mentioned in Oliver Twist, by Charles Dickens. The first fish and chip shop opened in Mossley, England, in 1863. It was the prototypical fast food, cheap, quick and unhealthy and considered a scourge by nutritionists.
