Lekkerbekje is a Dutch fried fish dish.
It consists of a fish fried in batter and deep fried.
It is sometimes called the Dutch version of fish and chips, though it is not always served with chips.
The name "lekkerbekje" is a diminutive of lekkerbek meaning gourmand.
Lekkerbekje may have originated in the town of IJmuiden, although this is uncertain.
Originally lekkerbekje only used whiting, however now it includes a variety of white fish such as cod, pangasius and pollock.
Lekkerbekje is often served with tartar sauce.
