How to bake carp in the oven with vegetables? Prepare all the products that are listed in the recipe. You can take frozen fish or use freshly caught fish better. If you have a frozen carp, then remove it in advance from the freezer and leave at room temperature until completely thawed.

Clean the fish from the scales, gut and remove the gills. Peel the potatoes, a couple of garlic cloves and onions. Cut the bell pepper lengthwise into two parts, remove the core and seeds. Wash the fish and all vegetables in clean cold water and dry with paper wipes to get rid of excess moisture.

Rinse the lemon. Cut half of the citrus into thin circles.

In a deep small container, mix vegetable or olive oil, a couple of garlic cloves passed through the press, salt to taste, a mixture of ground peppers and dry herbs. Squeeze the remaining half of the lemon.

Cut potatoes and bell peppers into small thin bars, onions in wedges. For the brightness of the finished dish, use red salad onions whenever possible.

Pour half the dressing over the chopped vegetables and mix everything thoroughly.

Coat the underside of the fish with marinade using a silicone brush. Fill the carp abdomen with onions, lemon, tomatoes and lightly salt the vegetables.

Cover the baking dish with parchment paper. To make carp with vegetables, it is better to use a wide sheet so that vegetables and fish can be distributed in one layer. Place the potatoes, onions, bell peppers and tomatoes on a sheet, and place the carp in the middle. Make cuts on the carcass, as in the photo.

Insert half a slice of lemon into each incision. Wash the garlic head, dry and cut in half. Send to the baking sheet. Coat the carp and garlic with the remaining marinade.

If desired, you can sprinkle fish on top with a small amount of sweet or smoked ground pepper.

Send the carp and vegetables to a preheated oven and bake for 40-50 minutes. The timing and temperature of baking can vary from the capabilities of your oven. I used the & quot; top-bottom & quot; mode, set the temperature to 220 degrees and baked for 40 minutes.

Done, you can serve! Very tasty when hot and cold.
