Ingredients

  • 700 g fish fillet (cod, redfish or haddock)
  • zest of 1 lemon (juice)
  • Salt
  • freshly ground pepper
  • 700 g boiled peeled potatoes
  • 3 tbsp clarified butter
  • 50 g flour
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 2 tbsp chopped dill sprigs
  • 200 ml vegetable broth
  • 100 g yogurt
  • 2 tbsp mustard
  • 2 egg yolks
  • a pinch sugar

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Rinse the fish fillets under cold water, pat dry, remove any bones if present and cut into strips about 3 cm wide. Season with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Peel the potatoes and slice them. Heat clarified butter in a pan and fry the potato slices over medium heat for 12–15 minutes until crisp.

  2. 2.

    Remove the potatoes and keep warm. Place flour on a shallow plate and dredge the fish pieces in it. Heat oil in the same pan and cook the fish for 5 minutes, turning gently, until golden yellow. Keep the fish warm over very low heat.

  3. 3.

    Whisk vegetable broth, yogurt, mustard, and egg yolks in a saucepan and whisk into a creamy sauce over medium heat. Season with a pinch of sugar, salt, and pepper, then stir in dill. Plate the fried potatoes and top with the sautéed fish, pouring the mustard‑dill sauce over the dish.
