  4. Heat the oil in a large saucepan or deep fryer until a piece of bread browns in about 15 seconds.

  5. Dip the pieces of fish into the beer batter and carefully slide into the oil (only do two at a time - give the fish a bit of space).

  6. Cook until nicely browned and golden (turn over if needed).  It should only take 3 - 4 minutes.

  7. Remove carefully from the oil and drain on a paper towels.

  8. To make the chips, peel the potatoes and chop into chunky chips.
