Steps

1

Soak the millet in water for about half a day, then steam it for about 20 minutes.
2

Rinse the smelt well with water, pat dry with paper towels, and season lightly with herb salt.
3

In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, herb salt, and dried thyme. Gradually add the beer, mixing with chopsticks.
4

Once the batter is thick enough to coat the smelt without dripping, gently fold in the millet.
5

Generously coat the smelt with the batter from step 4, then fry in oil heated to about 350°F until crispy.
