Instructions

  1. Wash and dry the carp. Cut lengthwise, halving the tail fin as well. Then halve each half again. (You can keep the halves whole if your pan or deep fryer is large enough.)
  2. Season the fish with salt and pepper. Dip the fish halves in beer, then dredge in flour. Repeat this process at least twice for a thicker, crispier coating.
  3. Heat plenty of clarified butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. Fry the fish on each side until golden brown and crispy. (Alternatively, deep-fry until golden and crispy.)

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
