Preparation
- Kill and clean the fish, rinse the body and body cavity. Peel and wash the green garlic, onion, ginger, and garlic.1 Crucian Carp
- Use a knife to make "X" shaped cuts on the surface of the fish, about 2 to 3 mm deep.
- NOTE: Make the "X" cuts on both sides of the back of the fish, and make a different number of "X"s depending on the size of the fish, usually 2-3 "X"s for small fish. The length of the "X" does not need to extend to the belly of the fish. These cuts serve three important purposes: to speed up the cooking of the fish; to keep the skin, as it shrinks during cooking, from pulling away from the flesh, keeping the fish beautiful in the finished dish; and making the flesh of the fish more flavorful, by allowing the broth to penetrate the skin.
- Chop the pork into small chunks, about 5mm x 5mm (3/16 in). Chop the mushrooms, bamboo shoots, minced green garlic, scallions, ginger, and garlic. Mince the pickled peppers and doubanjiang bean paste together.
Cooking
- Add enough oil to cover the fish to the wok, heat the oil to 150° - 180° C (300° - 355° F). Pat the fish inside and out with a clean towel to absorb any water. Then add the fish and fry until golden brown and remove. Remove the oil.1 Crucian Carp

Notes
Before frying the fish, pat the inner and outer surface of the flesh dry with a clean towel. Any water droplets on the fish will turn to steam in the hot oil and cause the hot oil to spatter, scalding your hands.
Take care to keep the fish meat intact.
While cooking, don't turn the fish, just take a large spoon and pour the surrounding boiling broth over the fish.
When chopping the pork and other ingredients, the exact size of the pieces is not important as long as they are small, but the size needs to be consistent when chopping. Smaller pieces cook faster, and having consistent size makes the pieces cook evenly.
