The sauce I:

Melt butter (1 cube per carton of evaporated milk) in a pot. Add one tablespoon (15ml) of flour per cube of butter and stir well.
Add evaporated milk, tarragon, and crumbled stock; half a cube per carton of evaporated milk.
Let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning.

The sauce II:

Wash a lemon and finely grate the zest. Set it aside for the final step. Cut the lemon in half and add lemon juice to the sauce; one tablespoon (15ml) of lemon juice per carton of evaporated milk.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and then turn off the heat. If you have extra lemon, you can cut it into wedges for later use.

The cod:

Place the remaining flour on a plate.
Season the fish with salt and pepper and coat it with the flour, ensuring all sides are covered.
Melt the remaining butter in a frying pan and fry the fillets for approximately 3 minutes on each side over medium heat, or until fully cooked. 

Your meal:

Serve the cod with the potatoes, carrots, and sauce.
Finish it with a sprinkle of lemon zest.
If you have an extra lemon wedge, you can use it to squeeze some lemon juice over the fish to taste.
