Bring a taste of Scandinavian comfort home with this brilliant, cafe-style dinner. Crispy, golden-brown Swedish potato pancakes—known traditionally as raggmunk—are the perfect base for ribbons of luxurious haloumi. Paired with a zesty horseradish cream and a tangy pickled cucumber salad to cut through the richness, it's a beautifully balanced plate that's simple yet sophisticated.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1
  • Grate potato and brown onion (see ingredients) and squeeze out any excess moisture using a paper towel.
  • Roughly chop dill. Slice lemon into wedges.
  • Thinly slice cucumber into rounds.
  • Cut haloumi into 1cm-thick slices.
  • In a small bowl, combine hourseradish sauce and light sour cream. Season and set aside.

TIP: Removing excess liquid from the veggies will help the pancakes crisp up in the pan!

Make the potato pancakes
2
  • In a medium bowl, combine the milk, flour, egg, and salt until smooth.
  • Add potato, onion, half the dill and a pinch of pepper, stirring to combine.

TIP: Lift out some of the mixture with a spoon. If it's too wet and doesn't hold its shape, add a little more flour!

Cook the potato pancakes
3
  • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Cook haloumi until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Return frying pan to medium-high heat with the butter and a generous drizzle of olive oil.
  • When oil is hot, add heaped tablespoons of pancake mixture in batches and flatten with a spatula. Cook until golden, 3-4 minutes each side (don't flip too early!).
  • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. You should get 3-4 pancakes per person.

TIP: Add extra olive oil between batches as needed.

Finish & serve
4
  • In a large bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, cucumber, a drizzle of olive oil and a good squeeze of lemon juice. Season to taste.
  • Divide potato pancakes between plates. Top with haloumi and a dollop of horseradish cream. Sprinkle with remaining dill.
  • Serve with cucumber salad and any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
