    2) Make the slaw by tossing together the cabbage, lime, honey, salt and cilantro, set aside and then make the sauce by combining all sauce ingredients into a bowl, whisk and set aside.

    3) In a large bowl, whisk together the flour with the spices, slowly start adding the beer until you reach a pancake batter like consistency, dip each piece of fish into the batter, add to the hot oil and fry until deeply golden brown and crispy, place on a paper towel lined plate and continue with the rest of the fish.
