For the avid angler, catching carp will not be difficult. Well, if you do not catch it, then in stores you can now buy whatever your heart desires. Large fish can be baked in the oven without any problems. In this recipe, carp is baked with mushrooms. It turns out a dish that is doubly delicious in taste!
Products:
1. Carp - 1.5-2 kg
2. Onion - 1 large head
3. Champignons (or other mushrooms) - 150-200 grams
4. Half a lemon
5. Vegetable oil
6. Greens, salt, pepper, spices to taste
1. Prepare the filling. Cut the onion into thin half rings, and the mushrooms into small slices. Fry the onions and mushrooms separately in vegetable oil until soft. Optionally, add chopped greens, salt, pepper and mix well.
2. In carp we remove the entrails and gills. Rub inside and outside with salt and pepper. Then we stuff the fish with the filling, fastening the edges with toothpicks if necessary. We make oblique cuts and put lemon wedges in this "pocket". Pour lemon juice over the top.
3. We bake for 20-25 minutes (depending on the weight of the fish) in an oven preheated to 200 degrees. Let the finished fish stand for 8-10 minutes and gently transfer to the dish.
Ingredients:
Fresh carp weighing 1.5-2 kg
1 large carrot
2 heads medium onions
1 lemon
0.5 kg of fresh champignons
sour cream 20-25% fat - quantity to taste
spices for fish to taste
Salt to taste
vegetable oil for frying
Preparation
Clean the carp of scales and entrails, remove the gills.
Then rub it inside and outside with the juice of half a lemon, salt, fish spices and leave it for a while while the filling for stuffing is being prepared.
Cut the peeled onion into small pieces.
Grate peeled carrots on a coarse grater.
Cut the mushrooms into small pieces.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and, stirring occasionally, fry the onion until light golden brown. Then add the carrots and mushrooms. Mix everything well and fry over medium heat, without covering the pan with a lid.
The ingredients should come out with a slightly golden crust, but it is important not to overcook them, as this will ruin the taste of the dish.
Put the finished vegetable mince with a spoon inside the carp. Take a needle with a white cotton thread and sew the belly tightly to the fish so that the contents do not leak out during the baking process (if it does, the fish will turn out to be rather dry).
Then, with a sharp knife, make cuts on both sides on the back of the carp, cut the remaining half of the lemon into semicircular slices and place them in the cuts.
Lubricate the fish well with sour cream on all sides and put on a baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet in an oven preheated to 180 ° C and bake for about 1 hour.
In the process of baking, it is necessary to additionally grease the fish with sour cream a couple of times. To do this, you will need to use a tablespoon so as not to burn your hands.
NOTE.
Carp meat is very tender, tasty and does not contain too many bones. It contains many minerals that are useful for our body, incl. for the thyroid gland and for the digestive system.
Our stuffed carp baked in the oven is ready.
Let it cool, then very carefully remove it from the baking sheet and put it on a beautiful dish. Using scissors and tweezers, remove the threads and decorate to your liking.
For example, you can decorate with slices of vegetables - fresh cucumbers, bell peppers, tomatoes.
The fish itself can be decorated with mayonnaise or thick sour cream with additives, using either a special pastry syringe, or by cutting off the corner of the mayonnaise package or a plastic bag (plastic file) with scissors, into which we will pour a little mass for decoration.
Then we will serve immediately!

Fish and vegetables are delicious!
It turned out very tasty! So, the recipe is carp stuffed with mushrooms, baked in the oven. The unusual thing about this recipe is that I did not grease the fish with mayonnaise, as many do, but prepared a mixture of sour cream and flour. And the second - usually the dish is sprinkled with cheese before and fried, but then a thick, hard cheese crust forms on the fish. The recipe that I offer you will be slightly different.
For three people, I cooked one big fish. First, let's start preparing "minced meat" for carp. We cut fresh champignons ...
... and a bow.
We spread the mushrooms in vegetable oil in a pan and fry.
Then we spread the onion. We simmer everything together for a while.
The filling is ready.
We clean the carp from scales and gut. The fins, I think, are best trimmed. We coat the carp with salt and pepper, stuff it with minced meat.
Then we clean and cut the potatoes into large round slices. Add the onion cut into rings.
Salt and pepper potatoes and onions. Stir to distribute the salt.
Place a layer of potatoes on a baking sheet covered with foil.
Put the carp on top, and send the fish and potatoes to the oven. We preheat it up to 200 degrees. We timed exactly half an hour.
While this half an hour lasts, we will prepare a mass for greasing the fish. We take 3 tablespoons of sour cream, put in a ladle and put on the stove. We heat the sour cream, as soon as the sour cream floats a little, add 1.5 tsp to it. flour and mix with quick movements. Heat until the mixture thickens slightly. We set aside.
The carp stood in the oven for half an hour, we take it out, coat it with a sour cream-flour mixture, just apply it on the top of the fish, no need to turn it over. You can also apply the mixture to potatoes. It is most convenient to do this with a baking grease brush. And we send our fish back to the oven, for another 30 minutes. After these 30 minutes, we take the carp out of the oven again and now sprinkle it with a layer of grated cheese and back into the oven for another 20-25 minutes. As the allotted time has expired, we take out the baking sheet. That's all, the carp stuffed with mushrooms is ready! You can serve, bon appetit, everyone!
P.S. To be honest, I overexposed the carp in the oven, when I already smeared it with a sour cream-flour mixture, set it to bake and went to put my son to bed, lingered and eventually overcooked it, probably a little noticeable in the photo. I will try to prevent this next time. But it still turned out delicious!
Carp stuffed with mushrooms was already prepared by me according to a similar recipe earlier, but this time I tried to add grapes to mushrooms as a raisin. Today I decided to publish a more simplified version of baking stuffed carp in the oven, so among the list of ingredients you will only find champignons, onions and lemon.
In the title photo, you can see how the finished dish looks in section if it is served already pre-cut into portioned pieces. I don't think it's worth talking about the taste of the finished fish, since even an ordinary person after reading the recipe will understand that carp turns out to be fragrant, tender and juicy in taste. This is facilitated by both the preliminary half-hour marinating, and the piquancy of the taste, which is achieved thanks to the lemon.
So, today I have on my menu carp stuffed with mushrooms, baked in the oven, a recipe with a photo of which was sent to me by our reader from Stavropol Nina Malakhova.

Attention! For those who undertake to cut fish in this way for the first time, it may not immediately be possible to achieve the desired result.
But, it does not matter, you should not hang your nose, next time it will certainly work out.
Wash the fish and peel off the scales. We remove the gills and carefully cut along the hump. Slowly, without haste, separate the skin from the bones and meat. As a result, you should only have skin with a thin layer of meat, head and tail. If you do not want to leave the head, then remove it.
Cut off the remaining meat from the bones and grind in a blender. Add the loaf soaked in milk to the minced meat. Chop the onion, garlic and parsley and mix with the minced meat. To stir thoroughly.
Cut the pepper into thin slices and pour it into the minced meat, add pepper and salt. Mix again.
We stuff the carp (fish skin) with the filling and sew the place of the cut with a thick thread. Preheat the oven to 180 ° C, grease the fish with oil and send it to bake for about one hour.
We will free the finished dish from the thread and cut into large pieces.
