First, the carcass of the fish must be cleaned of scales, previously thawing the fish and rinse it with flowing cold water. It is best to clean fish from scales with a knife or a special fish scaler, laying the carcass on a cutting board for fish.

If you decide to use a knife, you need to take the fish’s tail in your left hand and use the blunt side of the knife’s blade to scrape off the scales with your forward movements. Then flip the tuna to the other side and repeat the same procedure. Further, fish cleaned from scales should be thoroughly washed with running cold water and laid on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the abdomen of the fish and remove the insides from it, remove the gills, cut the fins. Then thoroughly rinse the fish component inside and out. Dry the carcass with paper towels. Now you need to make the fish sauce. Peel the garlic, rinse with water and chop with a garlic crusher. Rinse the dill with water and, laying on a cutting board, chop with a sharp knife, leaving a couple of twigs to decorate the dish. In a bowl, mix mayonnaise and sour cream, add garlic and herbs. Mix well. Grate the tuna carcass well on all sides with a mixture of salt and pepper. Then you need to grease liberally with the sauce. Then put the fish on a piece of food foil and wrap it well. Leave the fish in the foil for 20 minutes so that it is saturated with salt and spices.

Preheat oven to 160 degrees. Put the fish in foil on a baking tray and send to the oven. We will bake for 50 minutes. If you want to get a crust on the fish, then 5 minutes before the end of cooking, expand the foil, and bake the tuna in the open.

Now you need to remove the finished tuna from the oven, cool slightly, remove from the foil, sprinkle with lemon juice and put on a dish. Garnish with lemon slices and dill sprigs. Serve such fish on the table can be whole or cut into portions. Prepare a dish of potatoes or rice and a salad of fresh vegetables. Enjoy your meal!
