How to make
Wash and clean the carp of its scales. Salt lightly outside and inside and sprinkle it with black pepper. Crush the onion finely and put it to fry on low heat so as not to burn.
Optionally, you can replace it with leeks. Turn off the heat, add the crushed nuts, stir briefly and sprinkle a little salt and pepper. Fill the stuffing into the fish and sew it closed.
Put the carp in a greased pan in which you have previously distributed a layer of cleaned and sliced potatoes that have also been salted and covered in melted butter or oil. Smear a little more oil on the carp and distribute the the round lemon slices.
Cover with aluminum foil and put it to bake for 20-30 minutes in a preheated moderate oven. Then remove the foil and bake finished.
