Side Dishes

Method

  • Divide the lutefisk into serving pieces, estimating two good pieces per person.
  • Place the fish pieces with the skin side down in a baking dish or ovenproof dish.
  • Sprinkle generously with crushed flaky salt and let the fish sit like that for 30 minutes.
  • Cover the dish with aluminum foil. Press firmly around the edges to seal.
  • Bake the fish at 200°C for about 30 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.
  • Let the fish drain well before serving.

Pea Purée

  • Bring peas to a boil with a little water and a pinch of salt.
  • Drain the water and blend the peas with butter in a high-speed blender until smooth.
  • Return the purée to the saucepan, season with salt and pepper, and keep warm.

Chorizo and Apricot Butter

  • Cut chorizo sausage and apricot into small pieces.
  • Sauté the sausage pieces in olive oil, letting them sizzle so that the sausage releases both flavor and color.
  • Add chopped apricot and butter, continue to sauté for a couple of minutes.
  • Add chopped herbs just before serving.
  • Serve the lutefisk piping hot with green pea purée, chorizo butter, and boiled potatoes.
