Preparation
The carp with garlic simply amazed me with its sumptuous flavor. It is fascinating to taste hints of garlic in the fish. Give it a try!
Choose the largest, best-looking carp, with a distinctly fatty belly. Scale and gut it (if you cannot buy one already prepared). Rub it with a mixture of garlic, lemon, salt, and pepper.
Place lemon wedges and chopped dill in the carp's belly.
Slice the onions into rings and the carrots very thinly, into rounds or strips (using a vegetable peeler, for example). Line the bottom of a baking dish (tray) with the onions and carrots. Place the carp on this vegetable "bed".
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
Coat the carp with a mixture of pressed garlic, honey, salt, and egg yolk. Bake for 40 minutes, leaving the baking dish (tray) uncovered.
