Carp with potatoes and lemon in the oven

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make carp with potatoes in the oven? Prepare the products. It is advisable to take a fresh carp. If you have frozen, defrost it in advance. Wash the carp well, clean off the scales - I have a mirror carp, he has few scales, it is very large, it is easy to clean. Gut the fish, remove the gills.

2. Step 2:

   

   Now prepare the potatoes - it is necessary that by the time the fish starts cooking, it is already at the stage of semi-readiness. Therefore, peel it (you can just rinse the new potatoes well with a brush and leave the peel), cut into large cubes and cook until half cooked - I did it in the microwave. Add salt and pour sunflower oil, mix well. While the potatoes are cooking, take care of the carp.

3. Step 3:

   

   Peel the onion and garlic. Cut the onion into rings, and garlic - just in half. On the upper surface of the fish, make notches criss-cross - for beauty and better roasting. In addition, carp have small bones and thus we make them less invisible. Rub the carp inside and out with salt. Put onion rings and garlic, lemon slices into his abdomen. Grease a baking sheet with vegetable oil.

5. Step 4:

   

   Put the stuffed carp on a baking sheet. Garnish the fish with lemon slices on top, smear with mayonnaise (or sour cream, if you don't like mayonnaise). Put half-cooked potatoes on the edges. Cover the baking sheet with greased foil so that it does not stick to the fish. Bake at 180 degrees for about 1 hour, 20 minutes before the end, remove the foil and brown the fish and garnish under the grill or turn on convection. Determine the time by your oven.
