About Braendende Kaerlighed
Holger Rørby Madsen’s Brændende Kærlighed is a classic Danish dish of mashed potatoes topped with bacon and onions. His version keeps the familiar combination of dairy-enriched mash and a substantial fried topping.
Bacon and its pan fat give the dish a savoury richness. Soft onions add a sweeter note, while nutmeg and freshly ground pepper season the potatoes.
Creamy mash forms the base of each plate, with crisp bacon, lightly golden onions and their cooking fat above. Chopped parsley finishes the warm serving, contrasting the smooth potatoes with the fried topping.
