We got some fabulous ikan merah for this stew but you can use any fish that has firm flesh. If you add in prawns, mussels and squid you'll have a seafood stew on your hands!

A wholesome stew that would warm up your tummy on rainy nights.
Method
Flavour the milk with the left over fish bones by bringing it to a simmer. Strain it.
Chop all vegetables and fish and sauté till browned.
In a different pot, melt butter and add in flour to make a roux. Stir gently on medium heat till the colour changes into light brown. Pour in milk and stir till it slightly thickens.
Add in the vegetables and fish. Roughly chop dill and add in together with bay leaves.
Stir gently until it has a nice silky texture. Season with salt, pepper, lemon juice and zest.
