  4. Stir in the lemon juice and a healthy pinch of salt.
  5. 4 Dip the dusted cod into the batter, shaking off any excess and deep fry in the warm oil for five min till the batter is deep golden brown and the fish is cooked through. Drain on kitchen paper and keep hot.
  6. 5 For the Tartare Sauce: Finely chop the capers and cornichons and mix with the mayonnaise and parsley. Stir in the cayenne.
  7. 6 Raise the heat slightly and when the oil is warm sufficient to brown a cube of bread in 30 seconds, return the chips to the pan for 1-2 min till crisp.
  8. 7 Drain on kitchen paper and sprinkle with salt. Serve the crispy fish and chips with a good spoonful of tartare sauce and lemon wedges for squeezing over.
