Directions
Icelandic Asparagus & Ham Bake, This tasty & versatile dish is very popular in Iceland & uses common ingredients It is ideal for a brunch, luncheon entree or potluck occasion & also works for a dinner meal when combined w/a salad & crusty bread Another popular variation skips the use of bread + the reserved liquids & combines the remaining ingredients to use as a filling for tartlet shells that can be served as a starter course or brunch & luncheon entree hence its versatility I hope you will give this dish a try & enjoy it as we do here in Iceland :-), Great ingredients but came out too soft I did add 2 extra pieces of bread after reading Loof’s review just to make sure it wasn’t soft You don’t need to add any milk because there was plenty of liquid; I will reduce the liquid just a tad next time ZWT9 made for the Gourmet Goddesses July 2013, Tasty and good! Next time I will play around with it a bit, but it was tasty just as it was! Sorry for the late review in honor of your Football Pool win!
