Ingredients
  • 1 lb fresh or frozen cod or
  • other fish fillets
  • 1 1/2 c water
  • 1 tb lemon juice
  • 1/2 c carrot; chopped
  • 1/2 c onion; chopped
  • 1/2 c milk
  • 1 ts cornstarch
  • 1/4 ts dill
  • 1/2 ts instant chicken bouillon granules
  • hot cooked noodles

Directions
  1. Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Measure the thickness of fish; set aside.
  2. In a 12-inch skillet combine water and lemon juice. Bring to boiling. Add fish, tucking under any thin edges; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness of fish or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Remove fish from skillet; cover and keep warm.
  3. Meanwhile, for sauce, in a covered small saucepan cook carrot and onion in a small amount of boiling water about 3 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain well. In a small bowl stir together milk, cornstarch, dill, and bouillon granules; stir into carrot mixture. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more.
  4. Serve the fish with sauce. If desired, serve with hot cooked noodles. .

The sauce is really nice. It is delicate enough to accompany fish. Great recipe. Thank you!


I hope you enjoy it.


I love this. Sounds delicious and healthy.


I don't use bouillon, but I'll just add a splash of stock...I eat a fair amount of fish, and lemon(or lime) and dill are a must...you add 'cream' in there, and I'm hooked...I've never added carrots to a fish sauce, so this is going on my "try soon" list, as well. Thanks, again, Rott! :)


I sincerely hope everyone enjoys this one as much as I do. I like your alternates Keni. They sound good. The stock would be a great fill in for the bouillon, with a lot less salt I suspect.


It'll be comin' up soon, this week, if all goes well...and the only change I'll make is the stock replacement...so, I'll letcha know! :)


Okay...made! This was very good. I used haddock rather than cod, I sauteed the veggies in butter, then added the rest of the ingredients to form a roux then the sauce from there. I did add a bit of lemon juice to the sauce, too, because the name of the recipe made me want the sauce to be lemony. ;) I hope you don't think I changed it too much, cus mostly it was just slight prep differences, but the idea was what I'm basing my review on...and that was very good! I can't believe how sweet the carrots and onions made the sauce...the lemon juice really did compliment that very well. :) It's a lil heavier than I usually eat, so I did serve it just with a simply dressed spinach salad, rather than noodles or pasta. Thanks for the recipe, Rott.


Hey, thanks for the review keni. Sounds like you enjoyed it. Can't ask for anything more than that. And Thanks for the photo. It's a nice addition and gives others an idea of what the outcome should look like. Visual is good ;-)


Love fish and love the sauce. Thanks.^5
