  • Sea bass - 4-5 pieces
  • Carrots - 1 pc.
  • Sour cream – 200 gr
  • Water - 2 glasses
  • Green or onion - 1 pc.
  • Lemon - optional
  • Vegetable oil - 50 g
  • Salt and pepper - to taste
  • Dill and parsley - 1 bunch

You can prepare a tasty, satisfying and healthy fish lunch within one hour. To make sea bass in sour cream cook faster, remove the frozen fish from the freezer in advance - about two to three hours. Fresh fish can be cooked immediately.

Sea bass is a very delicate fish, which does not have many bones, but has very spiny fins. Therefore, to ensure that perch cooked in the oven in sour cream is also safe, cut off the fins with a sharp knife or special scissors. You should also very carefully remove all small seeds.

We cut the washed and prepared fish into portions - 3-4 centimeters, if the fish is not large, you can cook it whole. To do this, carefully separate the fillet and place it in a deep bowl.

It is best to mix salt and pepper and salt the fillet pieces with the resulting mixture.

Mix the fish well and, if desired, sprinkle with juice from half a lemon.

We cut the carrots into thin rings or strips, but you can also use a regular coarse grater.

Cut the onions into thin rings, cut the green onions into small pieces.

Lightly fry the onion and seaweed in a small amount of vegetable oil; this will give the perch baked in sour cream a delicate fried flavor.

Place the fried vegetables on a baking sheet in which the fish will be baked.

Also lightly fry the pieces of sea bass fillet until a tender golden brown crust forms. If you want the sauce to be thicker, roll the fish in flour before frying.

Dilute a few tablespoons of sour cream with water to obtain a mixture similar to jelly. Don't forget to add salt and pepper.

Place the fried fish on top of the vegetables on a baking sheet and pour in sour cream water.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes. Checking the readiness of the perch is very simple - the fish should become soft. Transfer the pieces of fillet in sour cream to a convenient plate.

Finely chop the dill and parsley and sprinkle on top. Sea bass stewed in sour cream can be served as a separate dish or a great appetizer, so don’t be upset if there are a few pieces of fish left over.
