Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake pike perch fillet in sour cream? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. The ideal option would be to take ready-made pike perch fillet. If you have a whole fish, then you need to clean it — remove the head, fins and gut it, removing the backbone and ribs. Choose sour cream with the highest fat content so that it does not subsequently drip off the fish.

Step 2

Step 2
Cut the fish into portions, add a little salt and sprinkle with spices. Rub the spices a little into the fish and leave it to sit like this for a while.

Step 3

Step 3
Peel the onion and rinse in cold water. Cut the onion into pieces and fry for 2-3 minutes with the addition of a small amount of vegetable oil. During frying, the onion will become transparent. Donʼt forget to stir it so it doesnʼt burn.

Step 4

Step 4
For baking I will use a ceramic dish. Place the fried onion in the pan and distribute it evenly over the entire surface.

Step 5

Step 5
Place the prepared fish, skin side up, on a bed of fried onions.

Step 6

Step 6
Grease the surface of the fish generously with sour cream. Place the dish with the fish in the oven, preheated to 190 degrees, for 30-40 minutes.

Step 7

Step 7
While the pike perch is baking, prepare the cheese. Grate it on a fine grater.

Step 8

Step 8
10-15 minutes before the end of baking, remove the pan from the oven, sprinkle the fish with grated cheese and put it back in the oven.

Step 9

Step 9
During this time, the cheese will have time to completely melt. If you keep it in the oven a little longer, it will also brown. Remove the baked pike perch fillet from the oven and place on a plate.
