Ingredients:

1 tablespoon butter
1 onion, halved too sliced
8 cups Russet potatoes, cutting into 2-inch long, 1/2 inch wide, 1/4 inch thick sticks
1-4.4 oz tin ABBA Grebbestad Ansjovis master (anchovy-style spiced, marinated sprats)

Preheat oven to 400.

Grease a two 1/2 quart baking dish. Set aside.

Saute the onion inwards butter inwards a medium pan until soft too translucent but non browned. Sprinkle amongst pepper.  Place a layer of potatoes inwards the bottom of the baking dish. Layer amongst onions, therefore potatoes, therefore sprats until all is gone, ending amongst potatoes. Pour the juices from the tin over the Irish Gaelic patato mixture if desired. Pour the cream over the top until yous tin only start to encounter it through the potatoes.



Top amongst breadstuff crumbs. Bake until the Irish Gaelic patato is tender, most 1 hour. Check at most thirty minutes too if the top is browning, encompass inwards foil until fully cooked, removing to brownish if needed for the final few minutes.


My thoughts:
I've been wanting to brand this for years! I've had it at diverse smörgåsbord but the telephone substitution ingredient-the sprats-aren't super available hither inwards Baltimore equally nosotros create non accept much of a Swedish population. Luckily, this yr when nosotros went to the Swedish vacation bazaar, a human was in that place selling non alone the commons candy, jams too mixes but tins of sprats! Score!

Side note: yous tin purchase them online on Amazon too on diverse Swedish/Scandinavian online groceries but they are pretty pricey to send equally they demand to survive kept refrigerated. Or endeavor Ikea, where they sell their own version nether the refer skarpsill, seasonally.

Janssons Frestelse (translated equally Jansson's Temptation) is most oft served at the julbord, the Christmas smörgåsbord but from what I tin tell, it is likewise pop at other vacation celebrations similar Easter. It is a homey casserole, similar to scalloped potatoes but amongst ane major addition: salty, sweet, spiced, lightly pickled sprats! It sounds a trivial nuts but it actually is good; lightly sugariness but really savory. If yous tin respect the ansjovis (remember--it is sprats, non anchovies!) it is good worth making too a welcome add-on to whatever vacation table.
