Prepare the vegetable filling: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onions, carrots, and bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 8-10 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Stir in chopped fresh dill into the vegetable mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Assemble the rolls: Lay a fish fillet flat. Place about 2-3 tablespoons of the vegetable filling at one end of the fillet. Roll up the fillet tightly, enclosing the filling.

Dredge the fish rolls in flour, shaking off any excess.

Pan-fry the rolls: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the floured fish rolls in the hot oil, seam-side down. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.

Deglaze the pan: Remove the fish rolls to a plate. Pour chicken broth into the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Simmer for 1-2 minutes to create a light sauce.
