Directions
Jansson’s Temptation (Swedish Potato and Anchovy Casserole),I found this on another website researching Swedish recipes. I love to make it and not tell people it has anchovies in it until after they rave about how good it is. The anchovies melt into it to make a sauce. It has such a yummy flavor! Here is a quote from the recipe: “Jansson’s Temptation is a classic Swedish dish traditionally served before guests leave to ensure that during their cold journey home they have something warm inside them.”,used to live in Stockholm, where I first had this dish. It’s delicious and perfect for a winter’s lunch or supper. I serve it with a simple green salad. Never used Swedish anchovies, only the Italian ones. Absolutely gorgeous. The Saltiness and oil of the anchovies provide the lovely flavour where they just melt into the potatoes and cream. Yum,Perfect recipe! I’ve spent many holidays with Swedish friends and decided to make this tonight for a holiday potluck. They came out exactly how I remember. Cheers!
