Clean the anchovies, remove the bones, and open them like leaves.
Prepare the parsley filling and place a thin layer between two anchovies.
Coat the pieces in egg and flour, making sure the coating holds the fish completely.
Fry the anchovy birds for 8 minutes and serve hot with lemon.
💡 Tip: Closing the anchovies without pressing them keeps the filling from opening in the pan.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve at room temperature to bring out the flavor, with crisp bread or lavash slices on the side.
