– To fry whole large carp on charcoal , you must first marinate it for 2-3 hours and wrap it in foil before frying so that it cooks evenly.
– Carp is a moderately fatty fish, so it is allowed to bake it in foil: in the foil there will be an abundant release of the fish’s own juice, but the carp will still not be too fatty, unlike fatty fish varieties, which are recommended to be baked without foil so that excess fat can drain.
