🔹 Instructions:
1️⃣ Prepare the Fish:
Season fish fillets with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Dip each piece in the beaten egg, then coat with a mix of cornstarch and flour.
2️⃣ Fry Until Golden:
Heat oil in a deep pan and fry the fish until crispy and golden brown. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
3️⃣ Make the Stir-Fry:
In another pan, heat a little oil. Sauté garlic, onions, and bell peppers for about 2–3 minutes. Add carrots and stir-fry until tender-crisp.
4️⃣ Combine Everything:
Add the fried fish to the pan and drizzle with soy sauce and oyster sauce. Toss gently to coat everything evenly.
5️⃣ Serve Hot:
Transfer to a plate, sprinkle green onions on top, and serve immediately! 🌶🍋

💡 Tip: For extra flavor, sprinkle a mix of salt, pepper, and chili flakes on top right after frying for that signature salt-and-pepper kick 🔥
