Tips:

1. Before frying, be sure to heat the pan first and then heat the oil, so that it will not stick to the pan
2. When frying fish, the temperature of the oil should be higher before the fish.
3. After the fish enters the frying pan, a layer of meringue will immediately appear, so don't turn it right after you go down. After frying for a while, gently shake the pan and the fish will slide by itself.
