Fiskegrateng
Norwegian fish-and-macaroni gratin with milk sauce, egg, leek and a breadcrumb crust.
About Fiskegrateng
Matprat presents fiskegrateng as a Norwegian classic and a familiar home for cooked fish. This saithe-and-macaroni rendition has a milk-based white sauce and a browned breadcrumb surface.
Nutmeg and leek give the filling aroma. Egg contributes to its light texture, while butter and milk bring richness around the fish and pasta.
The pale filling contrasts with the golden crumb topping. Browned butter and boiled potatoes are suggested alongside, with a grated carrot salad offering an optional fresh, citrus-flavoured accompaniment.
