Ingredients:
2 carp (about 2.6 lbs total)
300 g sour cream
4 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons grated horseradish
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon oil
Clean the fish: remove the entrails, gills, and eyes, then rinse thoroughly and make diagonal cuts along the backbone.
Pat the fish dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Rub the carp lightly with salt and pepper.
Let the fish sit for 10–15 minutes.
In a bowl, mix the grated horseradish with the garlic (pressed through a garlic press) and the sour cream.
Rub this mixture over the outside and inside of the fish.
Transfer the carp to a lightly greased baking dish. Place it in an oven preheated to 375°F (190°C).
After 15–20 minutes, lower the oven heat and continue baking.
Bake the fish for a total of 40–50 minutes.
Serve hot or cold — it’s delicious either way!
