• 1 untreated orange
• 2 tbsp honey
• 50 g walnut kernels

   Cut the orange in half, slice one half into rounds, and juice the other half.

   Rinse the carp thoroughly and make 4-5 shallow cuts on one side of the flesh. Season inside and out with salt and pepper, then stuff with orange slices. Place the fish cut-side up in the dish.
