Diet carp cooked in foil is suitable not only for dinner or lunch with the family, but also for a special occasion. The recipe is very simple, try it and take note.
It is necessary
- - 1 carp (weight about 1 kg),
- - 1 medium lemon,
- - 1 medium onion,
- - salt to taste,
- - ground black pepper to taste.
Instructions
Step 1
Before preparing the dish, you need to clean the carp. To do this, rinse the fish well under running water, cut off the head (if desired, you can cook a little fish soup from the head).
Do not cut off the fins, with them the finished carp will look more beautiful and neat, take out the insides and rinse again, leave them aside to dry.
Step 2
Peel the onion and cut into rings (thickness to taste). Rinse the lemon, scald if desired, cut into rings.
Step 3
Combine salt and pepper in a bowl. Grate the carp with the resulting dry mixture. If you use any other spices, then you will kill the taste of the fish. Place the carp in a cool place for 10-15 minutes (you can leave it at room temperature).
Step 4
After 10-15 minutes, put a few lemon rings into the carp carcass.
Step 5
Spread two layers of foil on the work surface, do not grease. Place the onion rings and the remaining lemon rings on top of the foil. Place the carp on the resulting pillow.
Step 6
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Wrap the carp on a pillow of onion and lemon in foil so that the juices do not leak out during baking. Transfer the carp to any convenient heat-resistant mold. Place the fish dish in the oven and bake for 35 minutes.
Step 7
Then remove the form with carp from the oven and carefully cut the foil on top, open it slightly, bake for another ten minutes.
Step 8
Place the baked carp on a platter. Throw out the pillow of onions and lemon rings. Garnish the carp with fresh lemon rings, lightly salted mushrooms and fresh herbs before serving.
