Carp baked in the oven with potatoes and sour cream
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Colorful, golden-brown carp with a sour cream crust is a perfect dish for lunch or dinner. Optionally, you can rub a garlic clove into the sour cream to give the dish a new flavor and aroma. Instead of sour cream, you can use garlic mayonnaise—this is optional. Serve hot.
