Cut lemon into large pieces. Boil up about 2 litres of salted water with lemon pieces, peppercorns, juniper berries and bay leaf. Form 12 dumplings from the fish mixture and let them simmer in lightly boiling water for about 15 minutes. Remove with a skimmer and keep warm. Take 400 ml of the stock. Peel and dice the shallots and fry them in hot oil. Pour on the stock, reduce by half and stir in the remaining crème fraîche.
