- pike, which weighs approximately 1 kg;
- sour cream;
- vegetable oil;
- medium sized lemon;

Rules for creating a product
prepare excellent pike baked in foil, wash it thoroughly under the tap. Then the insides are removed. Carefully cut off the tail and spiny fins. The head is usually left behind.

Stuffed pike in the oven - a new recipe
What do you need:
- one good fresh pike (about a kilogram in weight);
- 100-150 grams of smoked eel;
- 6 rather large champignons;
- one onion;
- a nice thick stalk of leek;
- about ten olives (preferably black);
- one tablespoon of good butter;
- one chicken egg;
- a piece of loaf or white bread;
- 8-10 cubes of Feta (can be replaced with other soft, salty cheese);
- table salt and black and red pepper to taste.
What we do:
Do we know how to clean and cut up pike? No? Then we learn: we don’t touch the fins and tail, we just remove the scales and remove the gills. Next, we cut the skin and meat around the head (do not cut it off completely!), then use scissors to separate the head from the ridge so that the giblets stretch out after the head. Happened? Amazing.
Now we “undress” the fish: carefully use a knife to pry up the skin at the cut and pull it off like a stocking. We try not to damage the skin, if in some places it doesn’t come off, we help with a knife: it’s better for the flesh to remain on the skin than for the “stocking” to tear.
Once we reach the tail, we simply break off the ridge: we should get a kind of “clothes for a mermaid”, which we will stuff. Now we separate the flesh from the bones (carefully!) and begin to make minced meat - without minced meat, “stuffed pike in the oven” will not work.
Chop the mushrooms and leeks and fry them in butter. Soak the loaf in water and squeeze thoroughly. We free the eel from skin and bones.
Next, we pass all this plus our pike fillet and peeled onions (all together) through a meat grinder, after which we add the egg, pepper and a little salt, mix. Attention - do not oversalt! We haven’t used the cheese and olives yet, they will be “added with salt.”
We take the “mermaid” and carefully, with a spoon, fill it with minced meat, layering it with pieces of Feta and olives. Do not overdo it with the amount of filling, otherwise the pike will burst in the oven. It’s better to “make up” a couple of cutlets from the leftover minced meat for relatives who are impatiently looking into the kitchen (and they will definitely look “for the smell” as soon as the pike begins to bake).
But let's return to the pike. We sew the carcass filled with minced meat in several places to the head and place it on a baking sheet (if you are too lazy to sew, you can simply attach the head and use a baking form into which the fish will fit, pressing its nose tightly against it).
Place in an oven heated to 200 degrees for half an hour to forty minutes. When it’s ready, take it out, cool, cut, decorate and serve.
And we get ready to receive enthusiastic gratitude from our favorite gourmets.
If you are afraid that you won’t be able to cope with “undressing” the pike, but you really want stuffed fish, try another option for preparing it. This one is stuffed pike in portions, cooked in the oven.

Stuffed pike in the oven with sweet and sour sauce
Cooking time: 1 hour 30 minutes.
- pike – 1.5 kg;
- eggs – 2 pcs.;
- loaf – 250 grams;
- milk – 300 ml;
- carrots – 3 pcs.;
- dried apricots – 5 pcs.;
- onions – 1 pc.;
- bay leaf – 2 pcs.;
- black peppercorns – 6 pcs.;
- beets – 2 pcs.;
- lard – 70 grams.
- salt pepper;
for the sauce:
- lemon – 2 pcs.;
- olive oil – 8 tbsp. l.;
- mustard beans – 2 tsp;
- honey - 2 tbsp. l.;
- salt – 3 grams.
Step by step recipe:
Step 1
Prepare the fish: armed with a knife and placing the fish in a deep bowl of water so that the scales do not scatter throughout the kitchen, clean the pike of mucus and scales. Then remove the entrails and gills: make an incision in the area of the caudal fin using scissors, trim the gills, disconnecting them from the neck. Then make an incision a little deeper than the gills and carefully remove all the insides with your hands. Remove the eyes so that they do not give off bitterness. Then remove the skin: make an incision in the place where the gill capsule ends, cut the ridge with scissors. Using gentle movements, remove the skin with a knife, constantly pulling it up and helping yourself with the knife so as not to tear the stocking. Add a little salt to the skin, turn the stocking outside, and place it in a bowl.
Step 2
Separate the meat from the bone: carefully remove the fillet with a knife. Cut the ridge into 3 parts and place in a saucepan with water (700 ml). When the water boils, reduce the heat and cook the broth for 40 minutes. Add to it a peeled whole onion, bay leaf and peppercorns. You will need to pour the prepared broth over the pike before baking. Then the fish will not burn, will be aromatic and will be covered with a golden brown crust.
Step 3
Cut the crust off the loaf and then soak it in milk for 10 minutes.
Step 4
Steam the dried apricots to make them softer. And then cut into small pieces.
Step 5
Peel the onion and cut into cubes. Grind the carrots on a grater. Fry vegetables for 5 minutes.
Step 6
Grind the pike fillet through a fine grinder 2 times. Then the meat will become airy, like cream. Twist the lard once, as well as the fried vegetables and loaf (no need to squeeze it out). Mix the minced meat well.
Step 7
Separate the yolks from the whites. Add the yolks to the minced meat, add salt and pepper. Add dried apricots. Mix the filling with your hands and beat it off.
Step 8
Beat the egg whites into a stiff foam, and then add them to the filling, gently folding them into the minced meat. Do not beat egg whites for too long.
Step 9
Stuff the pike with the filling, holding the fish with one hand and stuffing it with minced meat with the other.
Step 10
Prepare a vegetable bed for pike: peel and cut beets and carrots into slices. Arrange the vegetables on a baking sheet. Add salt and pepper to them. To prevent the beets from coloring the pike, you need to lay them around, and the pike itself on the carrot circles.
Step 11
Place the pike on a vegetable bed. Pour the cooked broth over the fish, making sure to strain it through a sieve or cheesecloth. Next, cover the baking sheet with foil, having previously greased it with vegetable oil so that when removing the foil it does not tear the stocking.
Step 12
Place the dish in the oven (180 degrees) for 40 minutes. For the first 20 minutes, the pike is cooked under foil, the remaining time without it. Transfer the finished pike to a plate and let it cool.
Step 13
Prepare the sauce: squeeze the juice out of the lemon, add mustard seeds, honey and salt to it. Whisk everything together. Then add olive oil and beat the sauce with a mixer.
Serve the pike cold with sweet and sour sauce.
On a note:
- To easily remove the skin from the pike, you need to lightly beat it with a rolling pin on both sides (10 blows on each side). Then the muscles of the fish will become weaker and the meat will not stick to the skin so much. Then it will be much easier to remove the skin.
- To prevent the filling from smelling like mud, you need to add onions to the pike. Its juices will block the smell of mud, but will not interrupt the taste of the tender fillet. But you need to add fried onions, not raw.
- To make the stuffed pike filling juicy, you need to add a piece of lard. Fats will not only provide juiciness, but will also hold all the ingredients together. The lard will melt under the influence of high temperatures, saturate the filling and hold all the components together.
- In order for the pike to keep its shape during baking, you need to beat off the filling: take a lump of minced meat and throw it forcefully back into the bowl, and so on up to 10 times. Excess air will escape from the filling, all components will be held together, the filling will become elastic and will be easy to put into the stocking.
- To make the filling tender, you need to add whipped egg whites to it.
- Dried apricots give the filling a beautiful color.
- Instead of milk, you can use cream with a fat content of 20%.
- You need to take the loaf from yesterday. It is dry, which means the filling will be airy. There is a lot of moisture in a fresh loaf and it weighs down the minced meat. As a result, the filling will settle to the bottom of the skin and may even remain raw.
- It’s easy to check the readiness of the dish: you need to carefully remove the fin from the fish. If it comes out easily, then the pike is ready.
