Add 1 dollop of dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar to the egg yolks.

Slowly drizzle in canola oil while whisking until thickened.

Chop tarragon and parsley, then add to the mayonnaise mixture.

Chop capers and cornichons finely and mix into the sauce.

Season the tartar sauce to taste.

For fish goujons, mix plain flour with cold water to create a batter.

Coat white fish fillets in the batter, then dredge in breadcrumbs.
