Vejledning

1 Make the dipping sauce by mixing all the ingredients together, then set aside. In a large bowl, make the batter by tipping the flour, sugar and some seasoning, then gradually whisk in the beer until smooth.

2 Heat the oil in a deep fryer or heat about 5cm of oil in a wok until a drop of batter sizzles and crisps up quickly. Dredge a few chunks of fish in the batter, then deep-fry for 3-4 mins until golden. Remove, using a slotted spoon, then drain on kitchen paper. Repeat until all the fish is used.
