How do you make beer-batter chips?

Question

I have googled for a recipe and can't find one anywhere.

I have googled and cannot find a recipe anywhere.
I found recipes for beer-battered fish, but I don't know the details of how to use it too cook chips (american French Fries). Normal chips are best when cooked twice.
Should you pre-cook the chips once and then batter them and cook them?
Or batter the raw chips and cook the battered chips twice?
Or to you just batter teh raw chips and cook them once?
