To make the batter: Mix the flour and beer in a bowl until smooth. Season.

For the goujons: Cut the hake into 3cm wide strips. Season and dust with a little flour. Heat about 5cm of oil in a deep frying pan. Dip the pieces of hake in the batter and add straight into the hot oil. Do this in stages, four or five pieces of fish at a time. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side. Keep warm while you cook all the goujons.

To make the sauce: Mix all the sauce ingredients, taste and season.

To serve: Serve along with the sauce, potato wedges and a green salad.
