   Step1:One carp (according to the number of people, for example, two small ones and one large one). Scrape scales to remove internal organs (this step can be done by the seller).

   Step3:Set the pot on fire. Pour in the oil after the pot is hot (a little ginger can be put in. It is said that it can prevent sticking the pot. It can be omitted). Fry the fish. Turn it over and fry it again (a small piece of ice sugar can be put in. It is easy to color. It can also be omitted). Pay attention to the small fire. It doesn't take too long.

   Step5:Let's start the stew on a small fire. The gas stove I use is adjusted to only have a fire in the middle. It's always slightly boiling. The meat will be cooked in about an hour. It will take half a day to wait for the bones to be soft. So the fire must be well controlled. Don't worry. Otherwise, it's easy to dry and stew.

   Step6:You can have a look occasionally in the process. Water it with fish soup (you can taste the salt if you are not sure. Add some salt). You can also put some dates. It's about the same time. The soup is thick. You can turn off the fire (or you can collect the juice over the fire). Sprinkle some coriander on it.
