Step 1:
How to bake a turpug in the oven? First, prepare all the necessary ingredients. If the fish is frozen, put it in containers on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator and keep it until it is completely thawed.
Step 2:
Peel off the scales and rinse under cold water. The scales of the terpug are quite small and sit tightly on the body. To clean, use a special device or quickly pour hot, about 80 degrees, water over the fish. But not with boiling water, otherwise cook the top layer. Remove the head, insides, rinse, dry and cut into portions.
Step 3:
Put sour cream in a bowl, pour vegetable oil and lemon juice.
Step 4:
Add salt and black pepper to the bowl with sour cream. Ordinary black pepper can be replaced with white or green.
Step 5:
Pour dried herbs into a bowl. It is dry greens that are needed, fresh in the cooking process will burn and lose its color.
Step 6:
Pour water into a bowl and mix everything well.
Step 7:
Grease the baking dish 16 * 21 centimeters with vegetable oil. Peel and grate the carrots on a medium grater, put an even layer on the bottom of the mold.
Step 8:
Peel and chop the onion, put the carrots on top.
Step 9:
Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin circles, lay them on top of the vegetables. The thinner you slice the potatoes, the faster they will cook.
Step 10:
Dip each piece of terpug into the sour cream mixture and place on top of the potatoes. Pour the remains of the sour cream mass into the mold and shake it a little so that the liquid spills evenly.
Step 11:
Put in a hot oven and bake everything at 180 degrees for 40 minutes. Focus on your oven. The potatoes should be fully cooked. Remove the fish pan from the oven. At this stage it is already possible to serve, but it is still tastier under the cheese crust.
Step 12:
Grate the cheese on a medium grater and cover the top of the terpug and potatoes. Put it back in the oven and bake for another 5-10 minutes to the desired degree. Remove the finished fish and serve immediately.
Step 13:
Bon appetit.

Keep in mind that the final result in this dish also depends on how you chop the carrots: grated carrots will turn into mush during heat treatment and mix evenly with the rest of the ingredients, cut into strips or cubes will retain their shape.

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information about the features of ovens !
