For the sauce: the chiles are placed on a grill over the stove until the skin is charred all around until blackened. These are blended with the juice of 10 limes and 10 cloves of garlic until a thick salsa consistency is achieved. Set aside. For the batter: in a wide but shallow plate, the cup of flour is placed along with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Beer is gradually added (about 2/3 of the can) and mixed with a whisk until a smooth consistency similar to pancake batter is achieved. Set aside. The fillets are cut into long pieces, approximately 4 pieces from each fillet. The fillets are dipped in the mixture of flour and beer and then placed in the hot oil skillet, browning on both sides. Drain on a plate. The tortillas are heated, and a little mayonnaise is spread on each one. The pieces of fillet are placed on top and accompanied with cabbage, tomato, cucumber, and the burnt chili sauce. Add lime to taste.
