If you read my post on Monday, you’ll know that it rained, rained and rained in Copenhagen. Thunderbolts and lightning – very very frightening me, gallileo! 😉 Which got me thinking about comfort food and – gadzooks – that I’d never written a post about biksemad!
What’s that, you cry? Well, you might have seen packets of it, nestling in the freezer section of the supermarket.
Diced potato, onion and beef (oksekød) or pork (svinekød). Now, let’s be honest. It looks pretty unappetising and anaemic in its raw state.
Anyway, fry it up, till it’s hot and crispy around the edges.
Sprinkle on a bit of green stuff (like spinat “spinach”) if you want to make it look healthy. And top it off with (at least) one fried egg per person…
Serve it up with lots of tomato ketchup, plenty of syltede rødbeder (sliced, pickled beetroot) and – if you are so inclined – Worcester sauce. Which, funnily enough, in Denmark is known as Engelsk sauce (“English sauce”).
Time to get stuck in to your biksemad (Danish hash). Velbekomme!
Have a thorougly thrilling Thursday – whatever you have on your plate!
