Instructions
 

The sauce...

  • To do this, heat the butter in a saucepan, then add only half of the onion (I need the other half for the cucumber salad), cut into small pieces, to the butter and simmer until translucent. Now add a spoonful of flour and sweat out the flour, but don't brown it, because butter could quickly turn bitter. If the onions begin to brown slightly on the edge of the pot, it's ok ...
  • 2 .... now fill up with milk, whisk well and bring to the boil, then slowly simmer until the flour has combined with the milk and the sauce starts to get thicker. How much milk everyone needs depends on how thick (creamy) you like the sauce. Now the glass of horseradish (you can also use fresh horseradish) is added again
  • Mix well. Now season with the spices of cubeb pepper (more normal is also possible, of course), salt (simple iodized salt is also possible, but I am not allowed to eat it) and finally fold in the dill.

Side dishes: potatoes and carrots ...

  • 4 .... peel and wash, then cut into pieces and cook in salted water, drain and arrange in a bowl. I usually cook carrots in the boiled potatoes because I like to eat them, they are very healthy and have no carbohydrates.
  • I use a special lid to cook my potatoes, the edge is made of silicone, so the edge remains tightly closed. There is an automatic mechanism in the handle of the lid, which opens when the water is boiled and thus prevents the potatoes from boiling over, a great invention of this lid ;-)))

Steam the fish

  • Put the fillet in the steamer baskets and over steam, I have a broth in the pot below, so the fish is particularly tasty and then only needs to be slightly salted and peppered.

cucumber salad

  • Peel the cucumber, cut in half lengthways and scrape out the stones with a spoon, then lift into a bowl and season well with the spices, making sure that I stir in the salt and oil just before eating (selection of Oils and vinegars have had enough of the shelf in my kitchen) .... so the cucumber salad doesn't collapse like that. Add the dill - stir and DONE ;-)))

Serving ...

  • The plates should be preheated and then everything is sure to find its place. Put the clementine slices on top of the fish, some also like to take lemon ... well, it is so versatile to cook 😉
  • Enjoy your meal
  • * Bengal pepper - long pepper, hot and slightly sweetish * Cubeb pepper, Jawa or also known as stem pepper
