Karolina Sparring’s gubbröra for Arla combines potatoes, hard-boiled eggs and onion with matjes herring, crème fraiche, dill and chives. It is served on crispbread as a salty, creamy late-night dish.
The potatoes are boiled until soft and the eggs are hard-boiled, then both are cooled. Peeled, chopped onion is fried gently in butter until soft and left to cool.
The selected matjes herring is drained, with its liquid reserved, and the fish is cut into small cubes. The cooled potatoes and eggs are peeled and diced.
Crème fraiche is mixed with a tablespoon of the same reserved fish liquid and the herbs. Potatoes, eggs, onion and fish are folded in, then the mixture is seasoned with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Six slices of crispbread carry the gubbröra. Extra dill is an optional garnish.
