Ingredients
For 4 servings
Method
Make the ravigote: stir together mayonnaise, cornichons, capers, parsley, chives, mustard and lemon juice. Chill until serving.
Pat the cod chunks very dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, white pepper and paprika in a bowl.
Pour in the cold beer and whisk until you have a smooth batter that coats a spoon. Rest it for 10 minutes.
Heat oil in a deep pot to 180°C (350°F).
Dip the cod pieces in the batter, letting the excess drip off.
Fry in small batches for 3 to 4 minutes, until deep golden and crisp.
Drain on a wire rack or paper towels and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Serve piping hot in a paper tray with the ravigote sauce and golden fries.

Tips & variations
Keep It Cold
Use ice-cold beer for a lighter, crispier batter. Cold batter hitting hot oil makes all the difference.
Dry Fish = Crispy Fish
Pat the cod really dry before dipping so the batter sticks and doesn't turn soggy.
Watch Your Oil
Keep the oil at 180°C and fry in small batches. Too many pieces at once drops the temperature and makes the batter greasy.
Non-Alcoholic Version
Swap the beer for ice-cold sparkling water or alcohol-free beer. You'll still get a nice crisp coating.
Other Fish
Use haddock, pollock or whiting instead of cod. For a classic market-stall feel, serve with garlic sauce instead of ravigote.

Kibbeling: the Dutch cousin of fish and chips
Nothing beats fresh cod in a crispy beer batter, dipped in tangy ravigote sauce with a side of golden fries. (Damn, forgot to film the fries )
In the Netherlands you'll find kibbeling at every market and fish stall: bite-sized chunks of fried fish, best eaten hot, straight from the paper tray. Easy to make at home too, and way more fun to share than a single fillet.
