  • Step 2: Stuff each chilli with a piece of cheese and few thyme leaves.

  • Step 3: Re-form the chillies and roll them in the flour.

  • Step 4: Whisk enough beer into the flour to make a batter the consistency of thick pouring cream.

  • Step 5: Dip the chillies into this and then drop them into the hot oil and cook them until the batter is golden and cheese is a bit oozy.

  • Step 6: Drain well and serve with a squeeze of lemon, aioli or sweet chilli sauce.
