How to make fried anchovies
First of all, clean the anchovies, opening them like a book and removing the internal bone and the tail, taking care to leave the fillet intact.
Then rinse them all together under cold running water to eliminate all traces of blood.
Then bread each anchovy in flour:
In the meantime, place a saucepan with plenty of oil for frying on the heat.
Finally, place the breaded anchovy fillets directly into the egg, making sure that they are well covered with egg on all sides.
Then fry the anchovies in boiling oil for 30 seconds and they will turn golden, turn, wait another 30 seconds and they are ready to drain on absorbent paper.
The frying must be light, so monitor the oil carefully.
Pat a few seconds on absorbent paper, then immediately transfer to a serving plate.

My advice is to enjoy them hot immediately.
If there are any leftovers, they are also good the next day, but they lose a little of their fragrance, at most you can prepare fish balls! it will be a fabulous recycling!
