Directions

  • Prepare the Fish:
    Rinse the carp thoroughly and pat it dry with a paper towel.

    Carefully place the fish in the pan and cook for about 5 minutes per side until golden brown.

    In the same pan, add garlic, ginger, and chili (if using). Sauté for 1 minute.
    Add soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and the remaining lemon juice. Stir well.
    Mix cornstarch with 2 tbsp water and add it to the sauce to thicken. Simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Combine & Serve:
    Pour the citrus sauce over the fried fish.
    Garnish with orange slices, fresh cilantro, or green onions.
    Serve hot with steamed rice or stir-fried vegetables.
