    Rinse the crucian carp after gutting, scaling, and removing the gills (done by the fishmonger), then wash clean and pat dry. Lightly marinate with salt and cooking wine, and set aside. Cut the tofu into 1 cm thick pieces. Heat the pan, add a small amount of oil, place the crucian carp in, and fry until both sides are golden brown.
