SWEDISH CREAMED POTATOES FROM SKANE (SKANSK POTATIS)



Swedish Creamed Potatoes from Skane (Skansk Potatis) image

Swedish potatoes from a cookbook from my Swedish neighbor, Millie. These are awesome but a heart attack waiting to happen! LOL. In order to have bacon drippings I sometimes fry the bacon crisp and then crumble it over the top of the potatoes as we like the extra crunch on top of the creamy potatoes.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large onion, chopped
1/4 cup bacon drippings
4 cups cubed raw potatoes (about 6 medium)
1 cup milk
3/4-1 cup cream
1 1/2 teaspoons salt

  • Stir until blended.
  • Cover pan.
  • Cook very slowly, low heat until potatoes are soft, about 15 minutes This will depend on how large your potato cubes are.

SWEDISH CREAMED POTATOES

I cook this whenever I do my Christmas Ham with Prunes and Red Cabbage recipes. The three work wonderfully together. Its taken from Scandinavian Holiday Recipes. I have copied the recipe directly but I've never added the herbs or leeks (I always seem to forget) and I must warn you that every time I do this the potatoes take ages (an hour or so!) to cook, maybe its me doing something wrong. The saving grace is that if you do do it to accompany the ham and cabbage, both of those recipes are very forgiving timewise ; ie the ham can be turned down and then rested and the red cabbage can simmer away quite happily just being stirred occasionally.
