2. Heat a flat pan over high heat, add the silverfish coated in egg mixture to oil heated to about 80% hot (350°F/175°C) and pan-fry until golden on both sides, then transfer to a wok with heated chicken broth and simmer over low heat until the broth thickens and reduces, then drizzle with rice vinegar and sesame oil before serving.
