Ingredients

Cost per serving $0.65 view details
  • 2 lrg Onions, sliced (or possibly 3)
  • 3 Tbsp. Unsalted butter
  • 6 x Russet (baking) potatoes
  • 1 can Flat anchovy fillets (2 ounce), liquid removed, reserving the oil and minced
  • 1 1/2 c. Heavy cream

Directions

  1. In a large skillet cook the onions in 2 Tbsp. of the butter over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, till they are golden brown. In a buttered 2 1/2 - 3 qt shallow baking dish (9 X 13 works well) layer the potatoes, peeled and sliced thin lengthwise, with the onions, the anchovies, and salt and pepper to taste, forming several layers and ending with a layer of potatoes. Drizzle the top with the about 2 Tablespoons reserved anchovy oil (or possibly to taste) and dot it with the reserved butter, cut into bits. Bake the casserole in the middle of a preheated 400 F oven for 10 min. Pour 3/4 c. of the cream over the potatoes and bake the casserole for 20 min more. Pour the remaining 3/4 c. cream over the potatoes, reduce the heat to 300 F., and bake the casserole for 30 min more, or possibly till the potatoes are tender.
  2. Serves 8 to 10
  3. NOTES : Jansson's Temptation is a classic Swedish dish traditionally served before guests leave to ensure which during their cool journey home they have something hot inside them. I rarely tell guests who have never tried this ..what's in it, people usually balk with a "I'm not fond of anchovies"
  4. response if informed of the ingredients. However..this is simply delicious, and the anchovy so barely discernible which no one ever knows they're there. Jannson's Temptation compliments any meal in that a potato casserole could be served.
