  4. Now heat the oil in a narrow, high saucepan to approx. 160 ° C.
  5. Heat your oven to 100c.
  6. Pat the fish dry and cut into large chunks.
  7. As soon as the oil is hot enough, dip your fish pieces into the beer batter to coat and taking great care and using a metal slotted spoon or spider add to the hot oil. Only cook 3 to 4 pieces of fish at a time.
  8. Fry for 6-8 mins, depending on the thickness of the fish, until golden and crisp.
