hi every one when you gut flatfish do you just cut the head off and scrape the guts etc. out with a knife confused

cut the head ,tail and fins arond the edges
yank the guts out , then dipi n egg, then flour, then egg ,then breadcrums then fry whole in a pan for about 2 mins each side ,depending on thickness to spice it up add some spice to the breadcrums ,chill or paprika etc etc

or fillet it and fry skin side down first , dont keep turning it oyer as it will fall to bits

enjoy steve
