Make an indentation in the center of the flour, pour in the egg yolks, beer and cornmeal and mix everything together lightly with a whisk. Let the dough rest for an hour at room temperature.

Season the shellfish meat with pepper and salt and put it in the icebox.

In the meantime, cook the sauce. Mix the garlic, kitchen herbs, juice of one lemon and olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Beat the egg whites to egg whites and fold them carefully into the batter. Add the batter to the shellfish and mix together.

Pour a heaped tablespoon of batter into a frying pan and fry in oil until golden brown on both sides. Do not bake too many fritters at once.
