How to bake fish in sour cream? Prepare the products. Which fish will work best? I cooked dorada, but any one will do: both white and red (pink salmon, trout, hake, tilapia, halibut). Rinse the fish, gut, peel, remove the gills and rinse well again. Dry with paper towels. If desired, sprinkle the fish with lemon juice. The set of spices can be supplemented or changed to suit your taste. Anise, basil, fragrance powder, coriander is suitable.

Make the onion-sour cream sauce. How to make a sauce? Peel the onions, rinse with cold water and cut into thin rings.

Transfer the onion rings to a container and remember slightly with your hands so that the juice stands out. Add the sour cream, spices, black freshly ground pepper and salt to the onion.

Mix everything well.

Coat the prepared fish carcass on both sides with the sour cream mixture. Stuff it with onions. Place the remaining onion rings on top of the fish. To give the fish a greater aroma, you can marinate the fish in the resulting sauce in advance. After stuffing, do not immediately put in the oven, but let stand in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Line a baking sheet or any other heat-resistant form with oiled parchment paper. Transfer the fish. Bake the dorada for about 40 minutes. During the baking process, the fish can be flipped to the other side, but this is not necessary. The baking time and temperature may differ from those indicated. Focus on the features of your technique. The finished fish will turn white, and a golden crust forms on top.
