Carp in sour cream fried in a pan
Description
The recipe won't take much time. This dish uses an inexpensive and readily available fish—crucian carp. It is sold in almost any supermarket. It is very important to clean the crucian carp thoroughly so that you don't find scales in your dish. Pan-frying the crucian carp beforehand will prevent them from falling apart during baking. To find out when it's done, serve hot.
