On top of the thick skin, the sturgeon is covered with slippery mucus that needs to be washed off. To do this, rinse it, without cutting it, under a tap with warm water and lightly scrub it with a brush or washcloth with an abrasive surface.
We rip open the belly. We clean the insides and be sure to remove the gills. There is no need to remove the skin, because thanks to it and the spines the fish will look royal on the table. For the same reason we leave the head and fins. After baking, the skin will become soft, and removing it in a plate will not be difficult.
Peel 4-5 medium onions and cut into arbitrary medium-sized pieces or half rings. Pass the peeled head of garlic through a garlic press or finely chop it. Put everything in a bowl.
We cut the zest from three to four lemons, depending on the size. We also cut them into small pieces and place them in a bowl. Season with black and white ground pepper and sprinkle in a couple of teaspoons of salt.
We wash bunches of dill, green onions and parsley under the tap. Chop and put in a bowl. Pour in about a third of a glass of vegetable or olive oil and mix everything together well.
Lightly rub the inside of the fish with salt. Place the onion-lemon mince in it. We sew the belly with a thick thread or fasten it with a skewer. You can fasten it in several places with toothpicks, and to be sure, tie it with thread.
Cut the remaining lemons into rings. We make a pillow from the part on a greased baking sheet and lay out the sturgeon. Lightly salt the skin and place some of the lemons on top of the fish, and leave some for serving.
Place the baking sheet in the oven, preheated to 180-190°, for about 1.5 hours. When half the time has passed, lubricate the skin with oil so that after baking it acquires a beautiful shine.
We take out our beauty, decorate with fresh herbs and the remaining lemon and place it in the very center of the table.

Salt	of necessity
Parsley, green onions	for filing
Vegetable oil	for frying
Ground pepper (black and white)	taste
Flour	1 stack
Butter	30-40 g

Step-by-step preparation

First of all, the sturgeon needs to be gutted. To do this, we rip open the belly and take out all the insides. Cut off the fins, head and tail. But we do this in such a way that there is a little pulp left on them, since then it will be possible to cook fish soup from them. Don't forget to remove the gills from the head.
We wash the carcass under the tap. Dry with paper towels and cut into steaks 2-3 centimeters thick.
Salt all the pieces on each side, season with white and black pepper and mix with your hands to distribute the spices over the entire surface. You can add a few other seasonings: dried garlic, white mustard, marjoram, thyme. Leave to marinate for about 20 minutes.
A couple of minutes before frying, sprinkle with juice squeezed from half a lemon.
Pour a glass of flour into a deep bowl. Roll each piece in it on all sides. You can also add some spices to the flour.
Heat the pan well. Pour vegetable oil into the bottom and melt 30-40 g of butter in it. From such a mixture Fried fish it will turn out much tastier.
Place the fish in well-heated oil so that the crust sets immediately. Fry over medium heat for about 4 minutes until golden brown crust and turn it over to the other side. The second side will take a little less time, so after 2-3 minutes it will form beautiful crust, and you can put the steaks on a plate.

What to serve with

The most correct, in my opinion, side dish for fried sturgeon and other fish is mashed potatoes. But you can just cut a couple into slices fresh tomatoes , season with pepper and salt, pour over oil and sprinkle with finely chopped dill. And sprinkle the steaks themselves with chopped green onions and garnish with parsley leaves.

My husband brought me a fish. And the fish is not an ordinary one, but a real sturgeon! I didn’t think for a long time what to do with it, I decided to bake it. I am friends with the oven and really love baking and baking in it. At first, of course, I admired it myself and showed it to my child :)

Then she drove everyone away and got down to serious business. First, I had to gut the fish, because they didn’t do this in the store. The activity, let me tell you, is not the most pleasant... Unfortunately, there was no caviar inside :)

Then you need to thoroughly salt the fish on all sides, including the inside, leave for 5 minutes, then rinse cold water and dry (you can use a paper towel). Next, salt the fish again and pepper to taste. Very tasty if you put fish inside onion, greens, a piece of lemon, Bay leaf. Or, for example, grease with sour cream or mayonnaise. I decided to use only salt and pepper. Place the fish on a double layer of foil, then place on a baking sheet. Lubricate the back of the fish with vegetable or olive oil, you can sprinkle with lemon juice. I really love the fish-lemon combination, but my husband doesn’t like lemon in fish, so I made it without it, without lemon. This is what a prepared sturgeon looks like.

Then wrap the fish tightly in foil and place in an oven preheated to 180-200 degrees.

Forget about sturgeon for 30-40 minutes. Then remove from the oven, open the foil on top, pour in vegetable or olive oil and, in this opened form, put it back in the oven for 10-15 minutes. After turning off the oven, let the fish sit in the oven for a while. I present to you the finished hot sturgeon:
Strong delicious aroma, like other fish breeds, does not come from the finished sturgeon. However, the fish looks very good! And it tastes very tender and pleasant.

Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the finished sturgeon into portions and distribute to those who wish to try the delicacy. You can sprinkle with lemon to suit your taste. Also choose a side dish to suit your taste. I recommend to all. Bon appetit!

The process of cooking sturgeon in the oven

You need to start preparing this dish by cutting up the fish. This must be done exclusively with gloves so as not to injure your hands. First, rinse the sturgeon under running water, then place it on cutting board and scrape off the mucus from it with a sharp knife, do this starting from the tail and moving towards the head. Then remove the gills, cut the abdomen and remove the giblets. Then rinse the fish again Special attention focusing on the peritoneum.

Take large saucepan, fill to the handles with water and bring to a boil. Lower the sturgeon there for literally 2-3 seconds, holding it by the tail. Then immediately pour cold water over the fish. Then skin it, remove the fins on the sides, belly and back. Rub the prepared sturgeon thoroughly with pepper and salt. Transfer it to a container and leave to marinate for 50-60 minutes at room temperature. During this time, the fish will have time to give juice.

Start preparing the sturgeon sauce. Hard boil the eggs, cool, peel and separate the yolk. Mash it thoroughly with a fork and transfer to a bowl. Add sour cream, melted butter, table vinegar and nutmeg there. Mix everything thoroughly to obtain a homogeneous consistency. Please note that instead of table vinegar you can use rosemary. It will make the fish meat more tender.

Preheat the oven to 190 degrees. Grease a baking sheet with vegetable oil and line parchment paper, and place the prepared sturgeon on it. Pour the sauce over the fish and sprinkle cornmeal. Then take half a lemon and squeeze the juice out of it. Drizzle it over the fish and then pour olive oil over it. Send everything to bake for 20 minutes.

Carefully transfer the finished sturgeon to a plate using wide spatulas. You can decorate the fish fresh vegetables or sprigs of greenery. It is served along with a side dish, which can be boiled potatoes, buckwheat or rice.
