Add the milk a little at a time. The sauce should be whipped constantly to avoid lumps. Add a little salt and pepper.

Add a teaspoon of nutmeg. Add lemon and lime juice. Finally, add the chopped dill. Whisk, whisk, whisk until the sauce has a creamy texture.

The sauce is poured over the mackerel and baked in the oven at 180 degrees for 10-15 minutes.

The hot dish can be served on a base of spinach and cauliflower rice (the cabbage is grated and blanched) or spinach and pasta.
