    Spent a good time with a Belgian family in my youth and this brings back the taste of wonderful Belgian food, little fiddly to make and get texture right but well worth persevering. Thank you for all your wonderful flemish recipes.

    Steps

    1
    Done

    Mix the Flour and Salt With the Oil and the Beer, Beating Well Together.

    2
    Done

    Cover and Leave in the Kitchen, not the Refrigerator or the Cool Larder, Until Required.

    3
    Done

    This Gives the Batter a Chance to Ferment Slightly, Which Improves Its Texture.

    4
    Done

    Just Before the Batter Is About to Be Used, Beat the Egg Whites Until Stiff and Fold in Carefully.

    5
    Done

    Remove Any Skin or Bones from the Cooked Fish.

    6
    Done

    Mash the Boiled Potatoes and Mix the Fish, Potatoes, Chopped Garlic, Herbs and the Softened Butter Together.

    7
    Done

    Add the Egg Yolks One at a Time: the Mixture Should Hold Its Shape and Be Neither Too Dry nor Too Liquid.

    8
    Done

    Use Only One Egg Yolk If This Gives the Right Consistency, or the Second Egg Yolk and a Drop of Milk If the Mixture Is Too Dry.

    9
    Done

    Season to Taste.

    10
    Done

    Take a Tablespoon of the Mixture, Roll Between the Palms of Your Hands, Into a Small Ball: Continue Until All the Mixture Has Been Used Up, Flouring Your Hands from Time to Time.

    11
    Done

    Using a Fork, Dip Each Ball in the Batter and Then Plunge Into Hot Fat.

    12
    Done

    When Brown and Crispy, Remove and Serve With Tomato Sauce or Mayonnaise.
