Instructions
- 1While the fish is still hot, marinate it with salt, pepper, oil, and lemon juice. Add a few drops of onion juice, if desired.
- 2At serving time, make a sauce by melting the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and salt. Gradually whisk in the fish stock and cream/milk mixture until smooth. Add the paprika and anchovy paste. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly.
